So hard my manual snake wouldn't touch it. Sure scrape it a bit, but make a hole in it? hahahah...
$138.75 later, all is good. 37.5 feet of power snake to the rescue. tricked him ~ 24 feet, but the water was coming back out with the sanke.
Took him about 3 minutes to clear the clog once he got there.
Dam, I hate those unexpected costs.
