DMT2

Fourth ten-foot caisson of Season 9, proposed as DE11 outside the Hedden Shaft and named DMT2 for Drake Tester. It cut through the shield at the base of the Hedden Shaft and hit puddled clay and hand-sawn wood near 146 ft. The episode states the casing reached 174 ft and then a total of 191 ft before the dig was called.

Positions on the map are approximate; each dot marks the top of the hole.
