Condition of Road?

Mark (or anyone else who knows), what kind of condition is that timpooneke dirt road that circles around the north to the west side of Timpanogos? Is it something I could take my passenger car on or is it 4WD/High Clearance worthy?

Re: Condition of Road?

In Kelsey's guidebook he talks about a lot of trails starting from that road, but I don't recall him mentioning anything about it being rugged.

On Maurader's Everest Ridge Route on the Timp Page he says "This is a descent dirt road, but there are large ruts in certain sections. Use a truck or SUV.". He also mentions 4WD being important.

J - Y Couloir?

Is that another name for Forked Tongue Couloir? Or is this a mixup with the Y Couloir in Little Cottonwood Canyon?

"May your trails be crooked,winding,lonesome,dangerous,leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. May your rivers flow without end, meandering through pastoral valleys tinkling with bells,past temples and castles and poet's towers into a dark primeval forest where tigers belch and monkey's howl,through miasmal and mysterious swamps and down into a desert of red rock,blue mesas,domes and pinnacles and grottos of endless stone, and down again into a deep vast ancient unknown chasm where bars of sunlight blaze on profiled cliffs, where deer walk across the white sand beaches,where storms come and go as lightning clangs upon the high crags, where something strange and more beautiful and more full of wonder than your deepest dreams waits for you- beyond the next turning of the canyon walls." --Edward Abbey
