What a beauty of a color and love those wheels. With all that ground clearance no chance of getting high centered in the snow.

Still driving our 2004 all wheel drive for winter snow.

Thanks @hckynutjohn. I will look into getting sidesteps put on, at 4’11” I really need them. But I’m loving it.

Love your new Jeep. 

Keep in mind that side-steps will lower your clearance and that will limit where you can go 4-wheeling. 

I've lived in Colorado for over 50 years. Been on many Jeep trails. One the most exciting mountain roads is up towards Imogene Pass near Telluride. Only the experienced 4-wheeler should go there. It's beautiful and a bit scary, too.

@SilleeMee    We may be thinking of the same road, Black Bear Trail.  I've been over the Cinnamon Pass/Engineer Pass Road several times out of Lake City and it's a good one too.  Here's the description for Black Bear. 

Very scenic trail for off-roading purposes. You occasionally run into a hiker or mountain-biker, but for the most part, it’s all 4x4’s. The views are spectacular throughout the trail but the best views are when you come down the waterfall. Incredible views from high above Red Mountain Pass and Telluride. Close-up views of historic mines and dramatic waterfalls. Feel the mist from spectacular Bridal Veil Falls. Switchbacks are one-way downhill; no return to start once you begin descent. Unlicensed vehicles should turn around before going down one-way switchbacks or have pick-up vehicle waiting at the bottom. Most of the trail is easy to moderate. The difficult rating is based on a mile-long stretch of dangerous switchbacks above Bridal Veil Falls. Your vehicle should have low-range 4WD, good tires, good brakes, excellent articulation, and a fully functional emergency brake.

@Kachina624  @SilleeMee  Black Bear Pass is pretty dangerous.  There is a video on YouTube called FALLING OFF BLACK BEAR PASS.. It happened last year I think ... Its pretty intense.  No one died...I've been over most passes here in Colorado but not Black Bear....DW
