I hear you. If I had a little more driveway to do I would go that route.
I have 150' of concrete driveway to the garage and about 180' of gravel to the barn. The barn driveway is cut through a hill about 3' deep. Both drives run east/west. There are miles of wide open fields to north of me. If we get 3" of snow and a good north wind, that barn driveway gets filled in flush with the yard on either side FAST.
I have put up snow fence in the past. It really helps, but I'm lazy. I'd rather roll the dice that we won't have too much snow and deal with it if I have to.
