<p>I live in the tropics and it hasn't rained much here for about 5 years but when it does rain its of a night time and it is monsoonal, very heavy.</p><p>I just put down crusher fines and then my track and i have very little trouble, but what every one says is quite correct; what is best for me may not be best for you and in this hobby there is no right or wrong way of doing anything. For slightly (up to 200 mm) elevated i have started using bricks coated with Glopatta (all from this forum) higher elevation, i use 9 mm marine tyope ply with 20 mm sides of 4 mm marine type ply and i coat the whole thing with several coats of paving paint. I make a type of tray 110 mm wide or the size of a brick, this is then filled with fines and my track on top of that. I buy all the ply in big sheets and cut it up with my Triton sawing table.</p><p>Before you think about mixing stones with fines read my "Incredible situation" posting.</p><p>rgds ian </p>
