It's my vehicle, it did great to be honest, at no point did I feel it was going to leave me stranded nor did I run out of ground clearance anywhere, some scrapes on the skid plates but nothing crazy. The traction control system did great on the hills, lots of wheel spinning though and you have to commit to it for it to really kick in if you're stuck or on a steep hill, basically give it the beans. My concern at times was the approach angle specifically on ditches, slow and steady and just a bit of nose scrapping did the job. The vehicle is lifted, has slightly bigger tires than stock, skid plates under the engine, transmission, differential and a hitch for added protection, if it was stock I wouldn't even dream of doing this stuff, I'm not that crazy 🤣 -

I did the Cherry Creek, Mingus mountain run on October 4th with @SonoranWanderer , not sure which run is more difficult. It was definitely pushing my vehicle to it's limits but with some appreciated spotting from him we didn't have much of a problem. It's just a lifted Subaru, have decent ground clearance with the lift, skid plates and all terrains. No 4WD of course, just AWD.

Awesome, thank you! I would definitely appreciate the spotting. Sign me up then! I have to enroll on the membership, correct? I will gladly do so. How long time wise is the run? Just ballpark as my wife has an early fly on Sunday so just need an idea of what time we would be back in Phoenix.

Hello everyone! First post here! Any chance a Subaru Crosstrek 2021 with off road tires, skid plates and lift(at around 10 to 12 inches of ground clearance) can make this run? If not this site will probably be the reason I eventually get into a more serious off roader 😅. Been looking to sync with a group for a while. Hung out a bit with Softroadnation but they've been less active lately.
