I’m having issues with ice on my setup

After using my setup in my yard I usually take I to flatten it out so it sets that way. Last week however it rained after I did that and the snow turned to ice and now my setup is almost unusable because my edges are really dull. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do.

use a steel shovel or ice scraper to chop up your take-offs and landings, then re-shape them. Salt will soften it up, won't necessarily melt it though.
