Does anyone know the best way to make this ramp nonslip? We get a fair amount of ice and snow and there are a couple elderly folks using the ramp.

We tried a basic nonslip rubber mat, but the grooves just hold ice and snow so don’t really help.

Our current ideas are maybe adding rubber stair treads every board or two, or maybe tacking little strips of wood to every board.

    We did this in the summer for using a picnic table as a diving board so we wouldn’t slip, although given the number of times I’ve fallen off of a roof while shoveling, I’m not sure how well it would stand up to ice and snow

    Maybe if salted properly though, thanks for reminding me of a nice childhood memory lol
