Chapel Hill Gravel, also known as Chapel Hill grit, is a grit type of gravel. It typically has an orange coloring and the size ranges from a gritty dust up to ¾ inch when broken up. 

This gravel tends to have larger clumps that can be broken up as needed. This material packs down well so when calculating depth, you should factor in enough to allow for compaction.
