E N D
Governor Basin • At a higher elevation so the flowers peak later. . .around first week in August • You need high clearance rugged 4-wheel drive • Jeep, Toyota 4-Runner, Nissan X-Terra, etc • No Toyota Highlanders, Subarus or other crossover SUVs (which now includes some Jeeps) • Road is quite narrow and rough. . .you need to be an experienced off-roader
Imogene Pass My Favorite 4-Wheel Drive Road
Imogene Pass Rd • The east side of the pass is best • Most fun 4-wheel Jeep trail. . .in one part you are driving down a flowing stream bed • Again, you need a rugged 4-wheel drive vehicle • Ruins of the Tom Boy Mine are on the west side of Pass • Great high mountain lakes!!!
