Hey all you HeMan bottle diggers! Small, but mighty, woman needs digging strategy advice. (No this is not my latest personal ad) []
I dont usually dig privies or holes, although I have done both; being the aforementioned, small woman.
Recently found what appears to be an untouched 1930-50's dump site, in a small drainage area, going down a hill. From reading your posts, I know that there may be an older site underneath the current bottles. Question is: Where to start digging, as my endurance for manual labor is relatively short.
Would it be better to start at the top of the hill, bottom, middle or somewhere else? Better to try the expanded sides of the crevice or just go down the middle?
In the passing of time, many of the top layer are broken, although they seemed to fare better on the sides of the crevice.
Thanks for any help. Happy Hunting!
