When I used to live on a gravel road in maine i would pull the gravel in from the edge first to save it and then pull it up towards the crown of the road. That's the way I saw a road grader do it. Except, I never used a blade--only an 8 ft rock rake (landscape rake) that kept smooting things as it went. As the weather progressed I kept rock raking in draft control and building a crown towards the road center. It worked perfect.
A rear blade for me proved too dificult for me because the grass growing in the gravel cause "bunching" and I was not able to get it smooth. The rock rake did a great job.
