Red Forest: 0.01-1 REM per hour depending on where you're at (found a 2005 paper with these measurements). However that's above ground. 90% of the Red Forest radioactivity is in ground, so digging trenches boosts that to 0.09-9 REMs per hour. Advanced Radiation Sickness (ARS) - takes about 100 Rem. 46 days to reach 100 REM at the low end, 11 hours at the high end. Whatever they dug into or stirred up wasn't at the low end of the scale.
