Still frozen after 24 hours.

Anyone know how I can create a hole in the ozone right over the hydrant?
-12 overnight was probably not a big help in getting anything thawed even
WITH heat tape and insulation.

I see you tied a propane torch-way too small. You might be able to find a weed burner or
snow melter torch at the home center that hooks up to a barbeque propane tank. Short of
that, pick up a piece of round vent pipe, snap it around the hydrant, and fill it with
charcoal....
