A word of advice... normally you do that in the spring not before winter. Because now the snow plow or blower will pick up the loose rock and put in your yard.

I am impressed I even got it half-right.

I'll drive over it a few times. That'll hide my shame. ;)

Neighbours now know I am a noob from the city.

Now flip it over and drag it. Some people use old box springs.
We used sections of old chain link fence, attached to a post on the end you pull from, then some sort of weight at the far end.

Smoothed, but didn't plow a pile up

Less than two kilometers.

You will find that to be a pain in the *ss with clean cars. 1.2 miles will stir up a lot of dust. I live a quarter mile off the highway. I drive slow and use a California Duster when I get to where I am going. We have hog houses all over where I live. My biggest complaint about living on a gravel road is the dust the traffic makes. Think pool, windows, clean cars. But I have awesome neighbors. One quarter mile away and two others half mile. That part of it is awesome. Around here the gravel roads get plowed after the highways are cleared. Sometimes getting a quarter mile down the road is hard or not happening for a while. Don't mean to discourage you any, just giving you a heads up. You have a beautiful place and am happy for you. Once you get used to it, you will never move back to the city.

And that is why, to live down the last to be plowed road, it behooves one to have a big manly truck with a plow on the front.
