Yes, you can tell by the smell. You can tell by the look. You can tell better when the meat thaws out.
Probably not until it thaws, but why was it frozen?
This is called permafrost, where soil, rock, or sediment remains below freezing temperatures for two or more consecutive years. It can be found in polar regions or high mountain ranges where the ground is permanently frozen.
The term for when soggy soil slides down frozen ground is "solifluction." This process is common in regions with permafrost or frozen ground where the active layer thaws and becomes saturated with water, leading to downhill movement of soil and rock.
"Defrost" is used to denote the removal of ice. You defrost a freezer or the windows of your car."Thaw" is when something changes from frozen to un-frozen. You thaw out a piece of meat and the ground thaws in Spring.
