Ground and Conditions in Bonnots Mill

A thin base shows up fast on this ground. Cherty clay over limestone moves when it gets wet, and a shallow layer of stone rides on top of it instead of locking in. You get ruts, loose stone and a surface that shifts every spring.

Heavy storms send fast runoff off rocky slopes into narrow valleys and creeks. On flatter uplands, water drains underground through sinkholes and cracks in the bedrock. Both routes pull soil and chert gravel off graded ground.

The fix is a compacted course that ties into the subgrade, with a drainage path that gives water somewhere to go. Spring is the wettest stretch and storms raise creeks quickly. Chert and rock in the ground slow digging more often than mud does, so plan the work around the weather.

Frost is milder than northern Missouri, but January nights average below freezing and days usually thaw, so freeze-thaw cycles come often. The local building code sets footing depth.

Materials for Bonnots Mill Projects

Start with fines. Screenings are the Missouri name for the fine crushed stone and dust left from crushing, and they make the walkable surface most paths here need. Use them over a compacted base for garden paths, flagstone bedding and paver joints.

For the base under a path or drive, base rock is the standard Missouri material. It compacts hard and holds up to freeze-thaw. Crusher run works the same way where you want a binding material with fines.

On top, walkway gravel gives a finer, walkable surface for paths and garden walks. Natural Pea Gravel suits play areas and bedding. For anything that has to drain, use washed stone with no fines: 1 inch clean, also sold as #57 stone, moves water in French drains and septic fields.

For decorative beds and dry creek beds, river rock and large river rock both work. Arm creek banks and culvert outlets with rip rap against storm runoff and high water. Topsoil screens onto thin, stony ground where you want grass to take.
