Took my stock TRD Tacoma up the 4WD road up to about 13,000 feet. There was snow on the road past that and wasn't confident I could've made it. After hiking the last portion of the road, I could've easily made it. To the summit from where we parked ended up being 2.4 miles, and 4.8 RT. Past the mine, the ridge is pretty chill and we were able to catch the summit at sunset. Hiked down to the truck in the dark, and drove the road down in pitch black; a small price to pay instead of walking the whole thing. I did scrape a handful of times, but if you have any experience on these kinds of roads you can navigate your way as far as you want. Really enjoyed this summit. Happy Sending!
