Local Conditions for Sand Orders in Sisters
Ground freezing in Sisters is real but moderate. That means you should account for how deep the base layer needs to be under a sand surface to avoid frost heave.
Soils in the Sisters area are commonly well drained, so less base stone may be needed under the surface layer. The ground around Sisters also soaks water quickly and produces little runoff, which further reduces the need for drainage stone. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
