When my family lived in Eastern Washington state and Montana, my father's pickup truck *always* had a plow blade he could attach in winter. He plowed our driveway, our neighbor's driveways, our entire road (Google Maps 'Bentley Road, Colville WA', and as like as not, keep the plow down all the way to town. Then he plowed out the business parking lot and sometimes other local businesses' parking lots. Or he delegated this to my brothers. I never did do it myself.
Stevens County would never have plowed out Bentley Road. It was then, and may still be, simply an oiled gravel road, and it didn't rate plowing by the county.
