Materials for Turner Projects
Start with the decorative side of the yard, then work back to whatever has to hold it up. Beds, borders, dry creek beds and ground cover all come out of the same short list of materials.
Large River Rock is the heavy round stone for dry creek beds, splash pads under downspouts and erosion work. It sits still in wind and reads as structure rather than fill.
Yellowstone River Rock is the smaller rounded stone for decorative beds and borders. It is the usual alternative to bark in a dry climate, and it does not blow out of a bed.
Washed Rock is clean stone with the fines washed out. That is the whole point for French drains, curtain drains, foundation drains and downspout runs.
Shredded Mulch holds on slopes and in wind better than nuggets, which matters on open ground. Use it in beds and tree rings.
For the hard surfaces, 3/4 Crushed Base Course is the standard Montana base material, also called 3/4 minus. It goes under driveways, shop pads, parking areas and shed bases.
Driveway Gravel, or 3/4 road mix, is the surface for a drive or a county-style lane. It carries enough fines and clay binder to pack hard.
Ground and Conditions in Turner
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 few intense summer storms do the rest of the water work in a semi-arid year.
That is why an under-built base shows up fast here. Crushed base course is the material that carries a drive or a pad over ground like this, and pit run is the unprocessed pit gravel for deep fill and raising grade beneath it.
Erosion runs on wind over bare ground, on sheet and gully cutting in the coulees, and on bank cutting. Riprap armors stream banks, culvert outlets, coulees, ditches and slopes against spring runoff.
The working season is short. Frost is in the ground from late autumn into spring, and compaction waits for it to come out.
Chinook thaws cycle the surface without taking the frost fully out until spring.
Frost depth figures published across Montana run from about 36 to 60 inches, and the northern plains sit at the deep end of that. The local building department sets footing depth.
