    Out of options have to raise 8"

    Can't dig anymore it's not in the budget..... Got an Intex Ultra frame 32 x 16 if you had to fill 8" on one side what would you use to fill? I will water it down and compact before putting two inches of sand over the whole area. Thanks! I'm on very hard ground as we already dug 20"+ in some spots.
