Materials for Tumtum Projects

Decorative rock carries a lot of yards here. Beds, dry creek beds and ground cover are where most homeowners start, and the right stone does the work a mower cannot.

For a dry creek bed or a downspout splash pad, use Washington River Rock. It is rounded stone, so it will not lock together like crushed rock.

That is the point in a creek bed, where water needs to move.

Where a winter storm would carry smaller stone off, use Large River Rock. It armours swales, ditch lines, bank toes and culvert outfalls.

For planting beds and tree rings, Shredded Mulch is the local beauty bark. It covers bare soil and holds moisture around roots.

Play areas and dog runs take Natural Pea Gravel. It is rounded and washed, so it will not compact underfoot.

For a driveway or a parking pad, order 5/8 minus over 1 1/4 minus. The 1 1/4 minus is the structural course that carries load on soft ground, and the 5/8 minus is the top course that packs and sheds water.

Ground and Conditions in Tumtum

This is glaciated mountain country. Thin stony soil sits over granite, gneiss and metamorphic rock on the ridges, with till, outwash gravel and lake silt filling the valleys.

That mix decides how a base behaves. Gravel valley floors drain quickly.

Till and lake silt do not, so water sits in them long after the snow is gone.

Spring runoff scours ditches, culverts and gravel roads during breakup. Streambanks cut in the valley rivers, and bare burned slopes shed soil and rock after a wildfire season.

The working season is short. Base, drive and paver work fits between spring breakup and the autumn freeze, and the window narrows the higher and further north the site sits.

Frost heave and soft spring ground govern any unbound base in this corner of the state. Okanogan County lists a frost depth of 24 inches, and the county or city building department sets the figure for your site.
