I hooked up the winch (come along) and developed some serious tension, then chickened out... not coming loose that easy.
I took the axe to it and chopped the small section in half... found a root right beneath it... so got half loose but still half of it left in place. I suspect another hidden tap root.
I predict several more axe sessions just chopping away at it... no easy answers, but good exercise at least. The axe actually works very well, just hard physical work that I am unaccustomed to.

PS: This would take less than 10 minutes with a backhoe.. I don't own a backhoe.
