Hi
Can someone please tell me the difference between these and which is the best for Southern Minnesota? Long cold winters and clay soil
sand
sand gravel mix
sand red rock/river rock mix
straight gravel
crushed concrete
Thanks!

Some clay may be OK, but there are some clays that do not behave well where there is constant water present.
Just look at the MNDOT specification, which is commonly referred to as "class 5" base and is commonly used state-wide despite the different local aggregates.
