were? they still are dude sometimes I take the ice auger and drill a hole in the ground just for fun then take the dirt mound and fill it back in the hole and I'm NOT kidding on this one.
hahaha I was gunna say the same thing! Especially up here where the dirt has clay mixed in...its like a jackpot every time I find some and it keeps me busy for hours
Did that as a kid....Made the ice auger dull.. Nobody would probobly have figured out how if I would have put the ice auger back when I was done...
