Motherlode Hill

bcircell- could you be more precise on why you believe using larger grade of gravel would be a bad option?

Its a county road... the RRGCC does not pay for upgrades to the hill.

Clif - I don't have the knowledge base to dismiss a larger grade of gravel as being an improvement or solution, as it very well may be. I do have a hard time imagining a grade of gravel that tires can't kick out, but maybe bigger chunks slows the process. I just don't think it addresses the underlying cause of the road falling apart in the first place - poor or irresponsible driving up the hill and lots and lots of traffic and will require some level of financial commitment from whatever institution is responsible. It would just be nice to have a more sustainable solution then park at the top of the hill where you may or may not get towed (I've seen conflicting information on this) or risk the drive down and be part of the problem.

So...admins, do we delete stuff like that before the weaker of mind or self control click on the link or do we allow natural selection to takes it course?
