Local Conditions That Affect Sand Projects in Piney Flats

Piney Flats sees about 48 inches of rain a year, so water management matters. About 93 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch, which means the ground is often damp. That affects when you can schedule delivery onto firm ground.

The ground around Piney Flats takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface, so a deeper drainage layer earns its place under sand areas. With about 94 days a year below 32F, freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.
