 Hound huge. I have seen them wider than a full size pickup at  a certain private commercial site. Those big ones were reburied during reclamation as it would not be worth the trouble of opening them.

Yeah if you've got a line on a saw big enough, go for it! Kicked over a few that size myself (the bucket size, not the truck size!) but was too far out to cart 'em back. Show pictures when it's cut!
