To complete the picture, envision the tarp above covering the top of

You want to allow airflow through the pile, not trap moisture up under
the tarp. Tarp should cover as little as possible while keeping rain
off wood.

I picture a huge fire ant bed extending up thru the wood and nearly
to the tarp.
