I went with a keystone retaining wall block and followed or exceeded the design and build specs provided. 600 - 90lb blocks was no joke. The first course was the hardest. After that it wasn't too bad. It's all about the geogrid, drainage behind the wall, and compacting in small rises. Moved over 200 yards of material (river silt, brown clay, 3/4' limestone). Fun project that took me around two months to complete and another year to finish everything else - subsurface drainage, landscape, landscape lighting, sod, hardscape, etc.


This is very good information if doing a block wall. Drainage is super important
