Anyone ever find an underground cable the hard way?

The hole is on the edge of my tillable crop ground, and I wonder about getting into it somewhere else during normal farming practices. After the fact, I located a number for, and called, the "Call before you Dig" folks. They put me in touch with Verizon who is currently investigating it. No phone outage up the road at the neighbor, and this line has to be at least 5-6 years old. Oops!
