What are our chances of making through this area with such a vehicle?

I’ve driven the trail once a couple years ago. It was rough on my ’04 Tundra with 33” BFG AT and FWC Hawk. What full size SUV are you driving, a rental?

Before you come be aware they are closing many of the national forest completely to ALL traffic here is the super parched Southwest. The ranger literally locked the gate behind us as we exited the Santa Fe National Forest near Gallina, NM last Friday!

I imagine we'll get a Ford Expedition given the propensity of them last time we rented.

Currently the San Juan National Forest is under Stage 3 fire restrictions which means closed to entry. However, the Uncompahgre National Forest (north of Red Mountain and Lizard Head passes) is under Stage 2 restrictions. Stage 2 means, among other things, no open fires even in developed campgrounds.

Virtually all (and I do mean all) of SW Colorado is shut down due to huge fire danger. All 1,800,000 acres of San Juan National Forest, BLM land, state parks and lakes and of course our beloved durango-Silverton narrow gauge railroad. (I believe Mesa Verde National Park is still open.)
This is all a tremendous economic hit to the region.

What a shame the N.F. had to be closed. But I approve the decision. Over population is killing our world. Most fires are started by man.
