3/4 Inch Crushed Rock, Stone and Soil Delivery in St. Regis, MT
Montana Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in St. Regis, MT, by the ton or by the yard.
Crushed base course, also called 3/4 crushed base course or 3/4 minus, is the standard Montana base material for driveways, shop pads, parking areas and shed bases.
This is ground where glacial lake silt and clay sit on the valley floor and river gravel runs beside it. The two drain very differently, and the material you choose should match the ground under it.
Materials for St. Regis Projects
Washed stone is the clean drainage material. Washing pulls the fines out, so water moves through the pile instead of sitting in it.
Use Washed Rock, also called drain rock or 3/4 clean, for French drains, curtain drains, foundation drains and downspout runs. A drywell or a downspout run only works if the stone around it stays open.
Riprap is the coarse armor for water you cannot redirect. Riprap goes on stream banks, culvert outlets, coulees, ditches and slopes that take spring runoff.
For a driving surface, road mix is the Montana term. Driveway Gravel, also called 3/4 road mix, carries enough fines and clay binder to pack hard under a roller.
Under that surface, pit run is unprocessed pit gravel for deep fill and raising grade. Pit Run is a sub-base material, not a finished driving surface.
For bedding and paths, crusher fines are the local name. Stone Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and surface packed pathways.

Ground and Conditions in St. Regis
The working season here runs from breakup into late fall, which is long enough by Montana standards. Silty valley ground has to dry out before it will compact, so timing a delivery matters as much as the material.
Across the Western intermontane valleys, lake-bed silt drains slowly and stays soft well into spring. River gravels beside it drain fast.
Snowmelt off the surrounding ranges keeps water up through May and June.
Cold valley winters with hard overnight freezing and midwinter thaws cycle the ground and heave gravel surfaces. Frost depth is set by the local building department, so check with them before any footing work.
High water scours banks and cuts gullies in silt benches, and burned ground sheds heavy runoff the summer after a fire. Riprap and clean washed stone are how you answer moving water.
