Valley floors here carry gravel, sand and silt. That ground moves well, so a path build starts fast.

Ground and Conditions in Interlaken

A thin base shows itself on a path. Edges crumble, ruts appear, and the surface pumps water after rain. Stony, silty glacial till and layered shale sit under much of this ground. Many upland soils also carry a dense layer that holds water near the surface.

Fix it with a deeper compacted base and a drainage edge. The dense layer traps water after rain and snowmelt, so plan a way for it to leave. Heavy rain runs fast off steep hillsides into narrow valleys. Creeks rise quickly, and flash flooding is a recurring hazard.

On flatter uplands, water sits near the surface instead. Base and driveway work runs from spring thaw into late fall. Frozen ground stops compaction in winter, and hillside sites can stay soft and wet into spring. Wet silty till can heave and turn soft as frost comes out of the ground.

Materials for Interlaken Projects

Fines and screenings do the finish work on paths and walkways. They lock together under a rake and a plate compactor and leave a surface you can walk on in shoes.

Stone Dust, also called screenings, is the usual New York name for this material. Use it for paver, flagstone and patio bedding and for fine pathways. Rake it, wet it, compact it, and it sets firm.

Item 4 is the standard New York name for compacting subbase stone. Put it under driveways, parking pads, patio and shed bases, and under any path that carries weight. It binds and compacts, so it holds a grade.

Walkway Gravel gives a finer, walkable surface where you want loose stone rather than a bound finish. 3/8" Crushed Stone, sold here as #1 stone, tops a compacted base and works for pipe bedding and walkways.

Wet ground needs a drainage layer before anything else goes down. Drain Rock suits French drains, drywells, foundation drains and downspout runs. #57 Stone handles drainage and concrete aggregate at a size that flows into a trench.
