Looked like a fun trip!

Got a question for you though, or anyone on the trip. Did you ever feel that your truck was too big for any of the trails in the area? Ive driven many of the offroad trails out there, but I've done it in my trusty toyota truck. I'm curious about wheeling a fullsize rig over some of those passes?

Having the longest truck on this trip I can say that the truck size was not that much of a problem on the trails we did. The switch backs created a slight pucker and required multipoint turns but if you took your time it was doable. The only other problem was dealing with oncoming traffic. We lucked out and only had traffic in a couple of tight spots.
I think we did a couple of the easier trails so it's possible to find more challenging routes.
