He highlights the significant incline, particularly near the top, which makes vehicle access challenging and poses a risk of becoming an 'ice rink' during winter.

there we go hi what's going on welcome to the Friday live I am on a skider and I got to flatten out my driveway at the top I hope this noise is not annoying but uh the top of the driveway is uh slanted really hard to the side which makes it uh annoying to get into um but um my biggest concern mostly is once winter hits and this place becomes an ice rink it's uh it's going to be a pain in the butt trying to get in here so I never thought I'd be in a position where I would have to be like a mountain man and going winter is coming and start playing accordingly to it so that's what I'm doing what is everybody else up to on this Friday noon well East Coast is probably 2:00 right now you guys are probably at work or got the day off um man I hope I don't keep running over I have an extension cord running down the middle of the driveway for my temporary power and I'm trying to be gentle with these tracks on the [Music] skid but I'm pretty sure I'm not going to pay attention and rip it to
