Match the material to the job. A drive, a pad, a drain and a bed each want a different stone.
Crusher Run carries the most weight in local work. It is crushed stone with the fines left in, sold by top size, 3/4 inch, 1-1/2 inch and coarser.
West Virginia base material is specified by the WVDOH Standard Specifications for Roads and Bridges. Section 307 covers crushed aggregate base course and takes its requirement from Subsection 704.6, which grades base aggregate by numbered class.
Class 10 is footnoted there as crusher run material only. Ask for Class 1 base when you need the heavier course, and Class 2 when you want the finer crusher run class.

Ground conditions across Doddridge County
The ground across the North central plateau and western hills is rolling to steep dissected hill country on shale, siltstone and sandstone. Slopes carry acid stony residuum, hollows collect colluvium, and mine regolith sits where northern seams were worked.
That soil is thin and stony on the slopes and it holds water. An under-built base on it will not compact while it is saturated.
Erosion is real in this part of the state, at roughly 3.6 landslides per square mile, most on slopes over about 14 degrees. Road cuts, development and timber cutting are the usual triggers, and creek bank scour after heavy rain does the rest.
Use Riprap for bank and slope armour, and a clean washed stone such as #57 Limestone where water has to move.
Work runs from spring into late fall. A long wet spell, not frost, is usually what stops a base job here, because saturated ground cannot be compacted.
Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw, and spring thaw is when a gravel drive shows what its base is worth. Frost depth is set by each jurisdiction, so confirm the figure for your own town or county.
Choosing the right material
Lewis County and Ritchie County sit on the same ground region as Doddridge County, so the base and drainage reasoning there is the same. Tyler County differs.
Tyler County lies in the Ohio Valley and Northern Panhandle, with terrace sand, gravel and silt along the Ohio and some old industrial fill on river flats. That ground can be deep and free draining, so a base there may shed water that ours holds.
Here the slopes, the clay-rich soil and the colluvium in the hollows are what shape the choice. Build the base for water that stays put.
