Fixing the Driveway
So, I live on the side of a hill, and the driveway winds around the house and down the hill. Some parts of the driveway are at a 45 degree angle. On one of those grades a trench has been worn into the driveway. The soil is pretty much clay with layers of gravel that has been poured over it and pouned into it by the vehicles. I want to fill this trench with something that will "stick" and not get easily worn out by spinning wheels or rain. (I'm in the Pacific Northwest)
I've been thinking of just taking a sledge and mashing the sides of the trench down and then buying some gravel to pour over that section of the driveway. Then I wound drive back and forth over it to pound the gravel in.
Of course I could just take a shovel and scrape off the top 5 inches of the slope and re-grade that section, but that's far mor effort than I want to expend.
Any bright ideas?
