Hi all, wrapping up construction on the pole barn. I put one overhead door on each opposite end so I could drive the hay wagon straight through for loading/unloading. I didn't account for sight slope and the exit door is about 2 feet above grade. The builder piled some excess stone there and was driving his kubota in and out but it is too steep for permanent use. I guess the length of the rock pile is about 4 feet max. the sight continues to slope gradually out from where the ramp would be. I figure i could either move that stone or add to it and build it out.
What should I do with this ramp? Is it ok to just keep piling stone there and maybe top it with flume or #53 to lock it together? what is a realistic slope and length of the 'ramp'? I want to be able to drive either the 8n or the ram2500 through there pulling the hay wagon. The truck has a large clearance due to the factory lift, maybe 15 inches or so.

In my younger days, mom, dad and my brother made frequent visits to dad's youngest brother Pete, who took over the home farm from grandpa MIke. It was the typical set-up, milk cows, pigs & chickens. In the winter, we'd play
