So spring is here and I've decided to buy several loads of gravel for the five "Mud Holes" as I call them over the next several months. These are five areas where water stands and eventually, potholes appear. While there is some gravel in some of these mud holes, most of it was too small IMO and has simply just disappeared into the ground.
So I would like your opinions on what size gravel I should order. A lot of gravel that's been ordered in the past, I believe is called "Crusher Run". If this was dumped in a mud hole area, it just disappeared after several months with very little left. For the part of the road I own, I put down a base layer of #4 rock, then dressed or cover it with what my supplier called #67. This last was a pretty big stone gravel, much bigger than the usual crusher run and I'm very pleased with it. Absent better information or recommendations, this is what I plan to use in the five mud holes.
I don't know what these rock gravel terms mean, but what I've seen, bigger is better.
