When I was working at facing and supporting the big embankment in front of my house, a friend at the other end of my dirt road offered to bring a load of pesky rocks and place them with his truck mounted log loader. Sounded great ! I got home one day and the rocks had arrived but his loader didn't reach the bottom of the embankment and when he let them go, they rolled some and were all about 5 feet from the bottom edge. Nothing I could do about it as my backhoe didn't reach either.
A few years went by and I suddenly had a porkupine infestation. Logs and brush and stuff had fallen on the rocks ( mostly 4' diameter ) and the porkies had set up camp. Fortunately, a couple of years later, the neighbors were adding on to thier house and needed to get rid of fill and I had it dumped over the embankment to fill in around the rocks. Haven't bothered to face it again.
