You're walking through the forest, and some guy covered in mud stumbles out onto the cutline, fly bitten, frenzied look in his eye, and a dirty shovel on his shoulder. Oh wait that's just me

Actual cannibal Shia Lebeouf?

No, I was just digging soil pits in yon shrubby fen. I don't if you guys are looking for peat, but there's a metric assload of it over there.

LOL, that was me last week. Got myself trapped in a swamp at the hiking trail, limped back covered in slime from the waist down.

Suboptimal. I've spent a shit ton of time in bogs and fens and it's not a place you want to enter unprepared
