I did it last year. It is a really great pass.

Yea, this work thing getting in the way of play sucks.

T-3 years for retirement I hope!!!

Then my Liberty will get a work out!!!

Good to see you again, Phil! Don't be a stranger. Stop by at least once a week to chime in or say hi. Two minute break to get a Jeep fix or at least a cyber KJ fix. :lol:

Sorry, I am doing 4-day National Guard weekend. So I can't go. Two days of 0300-1100. Today was the first one. I am a tired dead puppy right now. Talk about screwing up a sleeping pattern!

Tokyojoe,

Thanks for the reply. It has been a really strange summer. I have twin daughters in college, one in Grand Junction. We moved her into a rental house in June and there have been a lot of "issues". My wife and I made seven trips over there this summer to get things under control, and that ate up my weekends and vacations. I did no 4-wheeling at all this summer.

I still lurk the forums and hope to get more involved in the future. Maybe next summer!!!

That very well could have been me.... but I am pretty sure that was you I drove by on Florida today with my bike on the roof.

So Engineer pass was a no-go. The only person I could get to go with me had a brand new 4 runner that they hadn't even driven 500 miles yet so I didn't want to take the chance. (my wrangler ST's aren't inspiring either haha) . So we wound up climbing Park Transfer Road north of Durango. I'll post up some pics as soon as they give them to me.

yeah, drove by you on Florida today on my way to watch the Rockies game at my buddy's house...threw you a wave...might end up doing Kennebec Pass to the top this saturday...let me know if you're interested.

Well I am interested but I'm not familiar with that road. Is it do-able for a stock height vehicle on crap tires? If so.... I'm in... PM me with details and we can work it out.

I drove Engineer pass years ago in an International Scout II, no problems, beautiful drive. I did run across an old 70s Chevy Nova that was having trouble, but I think even a Subaru Outback could negotiate the road without too much trouble.
