This is a great plan, if your goal is say, fuel dilution of your oil and increased wear & tear.

Yes, salt sucks. Main reason my cars are hibernated from Mid October till March/April. They love cold weather, but have dirt and salt.

Have a fresh/recent oil change. Stabilize your fuel (1 ounce StaBil per 2.5 gallons of fuel), over inflate your tires to 55-58 PSI, pull your battery (since it sounds like you have zero access to plug in a battery maintainer) and suspend most of your insurance coverage (call your agent, and save some $$). Leave the car till Spring has sprung.
