wile , I know what you mean, gravel soup.
One drive, I leveled out the soup. It was like wet concrete. The next morning, it was frozen. I had 20 ton of #8 white rock hauled in.
Another drive, Leveled out the drive, pushed the soup in a low spot. Then I hauled in 15 ton of #8 gravel. It packed in. All is well. The soup filled the spaces between the rock. It will take a while for it to harden, then I'll grade some more gravel over it.
Just finished working on my accountant's drive. I took backhoe, removed the gravel from both sided of drive, took some of the clay away too for drainage. Used the clay and rock mix to repair pot holes. Also pulled gravel out of the grass that was put there by the guy he paid to plow the snow. That took about 6 hours to fix.
This year had to be the worst on some drives. Still have frost a few inches under the soup.
