    I think the salt is implied with snowy winters. Very few places with ice roads don’t have some sort of rock salt or salt brine they put down.

      Some use beet juice. Leaves everything looking like bloody murder but its good for the soil and doesn’t rot your car out from under you.

        I think there’s a scaling issue. I wonder if there’s even enough beet juice to completely replace salt.
