I haven't been getting out as much as I would like, lately, as one family/social obligation just keeps stacking up on another. My weekends have been/are largely a joke

I want to know what's in the bag now! Are you going to be able to go back there with someone else? Maybe the pair of you could get the cover up. It's possible that there *is* an entryway down below, it just doesn't look like it from ground level.
What I need is a bigger lever to honk that bastard open. I had a thing that would have been perfect, but I left it with a guy figuring I wouldn't need it for a while. (D'oh!)
It's possible there's a human-sized passage down there, but I don't think there is. That said, it was really hard to look into the hole with a flashlight partially blocking said hole.
I realized as I was writing it that there's a disconnect between the idea that the chamber was warm enough to melt the snow that was above the lid (this is fairly common) and the metal lid being cold enough to freeze the melt around the rim (that's a little dodgy). I don't know how else to account for the stubbornness of the lid, though.
I need to find a good, sturdy, big lever and get back there...

Need to figure out a way and get back soon.

It's been rather warm lately, I'm not so inclined to think it's frozen. It certainly could be, but doesn't seem right. Hrm.

As for the frozen cover, you could just drop in a firecracker and hope for the best.
