Thin, sandy, stony ground over hard bedrock is the norm, so what sits under a load matters as much as the load itself.

Materials for Inlet Projects

Snowmelt and heavy rain scour stream banks and gravel road edges on steep slopes, and flash floods cut deep washouts in mountain valleys. That is why coarse stone does most of the heavy work here. It armors a bank, slows a swale and holds a slope in place instead of washing out.

Start with the largest stone. RipRap goes on stream banks, culvert outlets, shorelines and steep slopes, where it takes runoff, waves and ice. Large River Rock suits dry creek beds and heavier decorative and erosion work. Railroad Ballast handles hard standing, track beds and severe drainage.

Mid sizes move water and build the base. #4 Crushed Stone is heavy drainage stone for construction entrances and trench bottoms. 3/4" Crushed Stone, sold around here as #2 stone, is the usual pick for drainage, septic beds, pipe bedding and backfill. Item 4 is the standard New York name for compacting subbase stone, and it carries driveways, parking pads, patio and shed bases.

Fine stone finishes the job. Stone Dust, also called screenings, beds pavers, flagstone and patios and makes a firm fine path. Drain Rock covers French drains, drywells, foundation drains and downspout runs.

Ground and Conditions in Inlet

Frozen, snow-covered ground stops base work for a longer stretch of the year than it does downstate, and thawing ground stays soft into spring. Time a delivery for ground you can still work, and let it dry before you compact.

Winters here are long, cold and snowy, and frost heave and boulder heave are common problems for gravel roads, drives and bases. Frost depth is usually about 4 feet down for footings, and the local building department sets the exact depth.

Spring is the other half of the schedule. A deep snowpack melts and swells streams, and rain runs quickly off thin soil over bedrock. Poorly drained till and swamps stay wet. Put coarse stone where water moves and build your base from there.
