Start with crushed base course. It is the standard base under a drive, a shop pad or a parking area in Sanders County, and it is usually ordered by top size as 3/4 minus.
Materials for Trout Creek Projects
Base and driveway surfacing carries most ground work around here. Crushed base course packs into a firm, load-bearing surface for drives, shop pads, shed bases and parking areas.
Road mix, also called 3/4 road mix, carries enough fines and clay binder to pack hard under a roller. Use it to surface a drive or a county-style lane.
Pit run is unprocessed pit gravel. It goes down for deep fill, raising grade and sub-base under a crushed base course or a road mix surface, not as a finished driving surface.
Washed stone handles water. Washed rock, also called 3/4 clean, has the fines washed out, which is the whole point in a French drain, a curtain drain, a foundation drain or a downspout run.
3/4 inch crushed rock works for drainage beds, pipe bedding and construction entrances. Crusher fines, which Montana yards call crusher fines, bed pavers and flagstone and surface packed pathways.
Sand and soil finish the job. Washed sand levels and beds under flatwork and pavers, mason sand goes into brick and block work and paver joints, and screened topsoil or garden soil builds up lawns and beds over thin, stony native ground.
For decorative work, river rock and large river rock build dry creek beds, borders and splash pads under downspouts. Shredded mulch holds on slopes and in wind better than nuggets, which matters on open ground.
Ground and Conditions in Trout Creek
This is the wettest corner of Montana. Rain and snowmelt come off steep forested ground, and the rivers run high into early summer.
Across the Northwest forests, Flathead and Kootenai country, the ground is glacial till and outwash, with deep lake silt and clay on the valley floors. Gravel benches sit above them and thin stony soils cover the forested slopes.
Clay and silt drain slowly. Water that cannot move down sits, and a base course laid over saturated ground will not compact the way it should.
Erosion follows the same water. Runoff off logged and burned slopes, stream bank scour at spring high water, and wave action along the reservoirs all move ground.
Riprap armors stream banks, culvert outlets, coulees, ditches and slopes against spring runoff. That is where riprap earns its place, and where washed stone keeps a drain running instead of silting shut.
Timing matters as much as material. Base, driveway and paver work runs from breakup into late fall, because saturated spring ground and frozen winter ground both stop proper compaction.
Winters here are wetter and a little milder than the rest of the state, with heavy mountain snow. The ground freezes and thaws repeatedly instead of locking up once, so gravel drives heave at breakup.
