weld co, colo makes it interesting, with many having no stop signs in any direction.. you just sort of solve the triangle if you see anyone on a side road, and it mostly works out.

Uncontrolled intersections are totally commonplace in this part of the country.  Most unpaved rural intersections are uncontrolled.  I live between two uncontrolled intersections here in Wichita.

FTFY.  Not just the Plains, but the Midwest, New England, and Deep South as well.

Regarding the OP, there aren't many in Vermont, but there are a few here and there...there's at least one in my town near Caspian Lake.

Heck there are several uncontrolled intersections in the City of Saginaw. They aren't at any real major intersections but they are around.

I think what could make this thread more interesting is narrowing it to 4-way stop signs on dirt roads.

Now that I haven't seen. Most of the time they seem to have yield signs.

Yeah, I could come up with a ton of ones that have (a) a two-way stop, (b) a two-way yield, or (c) no signs at all.  But I'm hard-pressed to come up with an unpaved four-way intersection.  The best bet is probably going to be a residential neighborhood with gravel roads.  But, even then, I don't know "gravel" counts as "dirt" for this exercise.

Aha!  Eureka!  I finally figured out how to find a four-way stop of unpaved roads.

Behold!

Amusingly, one of the stop signs at that intersection appears to have been knocked down or removed while the person was driving around town taking GSV imagery.

Nearly the entire town of Ekalaka, MT is dirt.  Plenty of cross roads there.

Hey, they've moved up in the world. There are two paved roads that lead out of town now.

True
I just drove down MT 7 and then on through to MTS 323.  I didn't immediately turn onto MTS 323 and drove into town.
