Materials for Council Projects
Raising grade and building pads is the work this ground asks for first. A low spot has to come up before anything goes on top of it, and that is where fill and sub-base material does its job.
For a building pad or a shop floor, start with Fill Dirt to bring the grade up, then cap it with 3/4 Road Mix as the base course. Road mix is crushed base with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller.
Pit run is unprocessed gravel straight from the pit, rock and fines at whatever sizes the pit gives. Use it as sub base under road mix, as structural fill, or for filling holes and raising grade.
It is not a finished surface. See Pit Run.
For a driveway, road mix carries the load and Driveway Gravel surfaces it. On a long rural approach, that pairing holds up through a mountain winter better than a single loose layer.
For a patio or walkway, bed the base with road mix, then finish with 3/8 Chip or Walkway Gravel. Chips are angular, so they knit together and stay put underfoot.
For drainage, use Drain Rock. It is clean washed rock for french drains, foundation drains, drywells, septic drainfields and downspout runs, sold in 3/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch and 2 inch.
Ground and Conditions in Council
Soils across the Central Idaho mountains and high valleys are thin and coarse, sitting over granite that weathers down to sandy Stone Screenings. Glacial till and moraine show up around the valley heads, with deep outwash sand and gravel on the valley floors.
That ground drains fast where it is deep, but shallow soil over bedrock sends meltwater across the surface instead. An under-built base on ground like this moves, and the surface above it follows.
Spring snowmelt and rain on snow scour creek banks and mountain roads. Stone Screenings washes out readily once it is disturbed, so exposed ground needs cover.
This is the shortest working season in the state. Snow and frozen ground close out base and paver work from late fall until the ground dries in late spring, and the reliable window runs early summer to early fall.
Winters here are long and hard, with deep snow and a heavy spring breakup that softens and ruts gravel roads and drives as the frost comes out. Footing depth is set by the local building official.
