 Mucky Muddy Mess

Brokenarrow, in picture 12 the grade looks quite nice. Did you get it that flat with the box blade that is attached to your tractor? I have never used one before.I may have to get one.
I don't know about not having a barrier to keep the stone from mixing into the mud. I would imagine the stone will keep sinking over time and more and more will have to be added.

If there is nowhere to drain rain water to, you might want t consider digging the middle out deeper and sloping the sides toward the middle. Then backfill with crushed stone sharp-edged stone will stay in palce better than natural tumbled gravel will have round shapes) Making the middle deeper allows the water to stay away from the load bearing areas where the tires are and also becomes an "reservoir" or shallow dry-well until it can soak into the ground.
