[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3836211, member: 5412"] Made it to the top! Drove the F-250 up La Plata Canyon by Durango today. Got to the end of the main road at 11,000 ft or so and decided to take the back road to the very top across the side of the mountain to the peak of Kennebec Pass. White knuckle all the way for most of a mile with the canyon wall on one side and a 500-800’ drop a foot outside the tires most of the way up and down. Had to roll in the side mirrors so we could hug the canyon wall on the road designed for Jeep’s and UTv’s. According to the GPS we ended up at exactly 12,000 ft. [ATTACH type="full"]293464[/ATTACH] In this pic above, you can see the trail we had to traverse across the mountain. The pic below was almost all the way to the top above timberline where very little plant life exists. [ATTACH type="full"]293463[/ATTACH] The views were amazing. [ATTACH type="full"]293465[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]293466[/ATTACH] On the other side of the pass it’s now private property and fenced off. With the naked eye it appears there is a tent of some sort set up down there and possibly a vehicle just between it and us that went over the side. It was almost a mile away so hard to tell exactly.
