[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1117768, member: 18945"] Mine is white or red clay from surface down to about 6 ft. It's either like concrete (Aug) or a sticky gummy mess in the wet part of winter and even then, it gets hard at about 3' where the surface water hasn't been able to penetrate down. I usually go 4' on the corners using cross ties or sawed utility poles. I do have some sand down by the river, but don't have to get very far from the river to hit the hard stuff again. I've had a brand new auger just sit and spin about 2' down, and pour 5 gal of water in to soak while I dig another further down, come back, drill 6-8" more then rinse and repeat till I get to depth. It's a pita, but gotta do it. [/QUOTE]
