A new auger is cheaper than a new back. It belongs to the earth now.

I've lost auger bits down at 350 cm. Funny to think, one day an excavator will likely find it.

Hand augering to 3m is my field season strength training.

How deep do you normally go?

Ever try a Russian peat sampler? Fucking don't lol. Easily twice as hard as soil survey. I pulled peat up from 780 cm with one of those fuckers, one shift.

Usually 1m by hand but I was on a project this summer where we were stopping at 3.2m

That Russian peat sampler and 780cm sounds like you were being punished for something.
