Colorado owners thought on the Schofield Pass Road

[TexasTJ]

Any thought on running the Schofield Pass Road from Crested Butte to Carbondale IN a LR3 on 32's? I am thinking ahead for next summer as this one has been a bust for us. I have been interested in this trail for a while and if COVID had not happened would have probable given it a go this summer. After looking at some more video and some photos I'm just not sure if I would need to be more in the Jeep on 35's range for this trail.

thanks

Did it in a mostly stock LR4 two years ago in 19” duratracs. No issues. Just very careful tire placement, especially at the crux on the way down devils punch bowl.

Ran it in a bone stock P38 if that helps

This all sounds good I had watched a video on YouTube that made it look like at one point you had to climb around a big rock on the passages side (for north bound travel) that I wasn’t sure you didn’t need 35’s to get over.

I used to live in Gunnison back in the late 90's, and did this road multiple times in a stock 93 XJ with oem sized K01's.

Sounds about right. It was this rock...

Won’t be a problem. Look me up when you’re in CB, I’ll buy you a beer!
