Our driveway here near Medford is a piece of cake compared to the driveway we endured for 25 years at our old place, Tom. That driveway was 2/3 mile long and gained 400' in elevation from the paved road up to our house. The worst part was a hairpin curve at the top of a section with a 25% slope. I lost traction many times over the years in the middle of that hairpin going uphill in the snow. Going downhill in the snow was even worse -- came close to going over the edge more than once, sliding on the packed snow.
You did have one heck of a driveway.
But you also had one heck of a view. A lot of people would put up with such a driveway just for that view.
