for a few years I would get a tri axle load or two of number 4s the size of my fist spread out each year from the local quarry but only in the spring during mud season, then I would pack it into the mud by running my mack over it like a roller. After I got a good base I put modified on top of the no 4s. Modified is no 2s the size of your thumb with smaller stone and screenings mixed in to pack well. Then I got free screenings from around a crusher with some junk mixed in with in, some scrap metal and a ocassinal pumpkin sized rock ect. After spreading that with the 8-n I bought no 1s the size of a pea and spread it out and rolled it in to the screenings. It is real nice but if the ground does not freeze up real hard brfore the snow a snow plow will act like a bulldozer and throw all the fine stuff off to the side.
