So I have a tiny ass backyard. Dad is fine with a rail setup in the winter, but not summer. I've just been piling up snow for it in the winter, and that sucks. I would like to have drop in ramp that can be taken apart, moved fairly easily and stored. I'm thinking of having a removable ramp and then just a tower to lean it on, but the tower part is confusing me. i've made one before at my friend's house which was just a big rectangular prism, but this one i want to fold up/go together, like an A frame type deal. but not quite. I honestly have no idea what to do.

Requirements:

- Can break down into at least two pieces for storage.

- Portable-ish

- Able to stand on top for balance purposes.

- Able to walk up front / side without taking skis off.

Please just throw out any ideas you have, i'm at a complete loss here.
 
since he said he would like to walk up the front of it with skis on ^ instead of putting a flat piece of plywood on the drop in and put 4x4 as rungs on a ladder to walk up as well as ski down. cover them with turf so you don't scratch you skis and your good.
