I think it all depends on the creek as to what type of gravel you have, mine is mostly flat gravel that has flaked off the bed rock (sand stone/shale with small granite round parts, but my drive base is wash 57 creek run which is round and doesn't pack nearly as well as my CREEK's gravel which is flat & broken up easliy with sand & fines mixed in. it works great as a base and I've pulled a lot out the last 4 or 5 years as well as had 100+ tons delivered to add to drive
