Last year I put in these steps but some are shifting because of the run-off (wet clay). Underneath the steps there's a bit if gravel (likely not enough). At the top of the stairs there's a layer of cedar (2nd picture) for the interim to have a barrier to prevent slipping/my shoes from getting muddy as it gets especially wet there. I have stone (3rd picture) and some wood planks available (last picture) I could use to make a path but worried they'll end up shifting like the steps. Suggestions on how to fix this? Do I just more gravel underneath? Lol
This is obviously a DIY job. I can't afford landscapers. materials came with the house.

You did a great job with the steps in first picture. Looks amazing and fits in with the natural landscape. To prevent steps from slipping put metal stakes in front of each one. Ensure they don’t interfere with any tripping hazard.
