Materials for Hinsdale Projects
Decorative rock does a lot of the heavy lifting on open ground here. Rounded stone holds up to wind and sun where bark breaks down, and it does not blow away.
Large River Rock is the big rounded stone for dry creek beds, splash pads under downspouts, and heavier decorative and erosion work. Yellowstone River Rock is the smaller rounded stone for decorative beds and borders, and it is the usual alternative to bark in a dry climate.
For ground cover and paths, 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways, play areas, dog runs, and drainage where rounded stone is wanted. Walkway Gravel gives garden paths a finer, walkable surface than a drive.
Under all of it, 3/4 Crushed Base Course is the standard Montana base material, also called 3/4 minus, for driveways, shop pads, parking areas, and shed bases. Washed Rock is the clean stone for French drains, curtain drains, foundation drains, and downspout runs, where washing the fines out is the whole point.
Ground and Conditions in Hinsdale
Across the Hi-Line and the northern glaciated plains, the ground is glacial till over shale, a mix of clay, gravel, sand, and silt left by the ice and by glacial lakes. Much of it is heavy and slow-draining.
Flat ground and heavy till drain slowly, and snowmelt ponds on subsoil that is still frozen. A semi-arid year gets broken by a few intense summer storms, so water shows up fast when it comes.
That is why an under-built base shows itself here. Heavy till holds water, and a drive or pad that sits on it without a compacted base course moves and ruts.
Crushed base course is the material that gives you that compacted base.
Wind on bare ground, sheet and gully erosion in the coulees, and bank cutting all move soil once it is exposed. Decorative rock and riprap hold ground cover in place where bare dirt would wash or blow.
The working season is short. Frost is in the ground from late autumn into spring, and compaction waits for it to come out.
Winters bring deep frost and long cold spells, with chinook thaws that cycle the surface without taking the frost fully out until spring.
