Info: The Mt. Princeton road was no problem for my stock x-terra. I was able to drive without any problem all the way to the end of the road at the Bristlecone Pine Chalet

Info: I drove up to the radio towers the other day at 10,800 feet. This was in a moderate clearance AWD vehicle. There was actually a couple of spots where I could possibly imagine being able to get stuck spinning with only 2WD, but my guess is most vehicles will make it. Shortly beyond the towers there were several snowdrifts that would have made continuing any further impossible unless you are driving a snowplow or something. :)

Info: The Mt. Princeton Road is closed in winter. In late spring it may be partially open. It usually opens to high-altitude in late May. When open, 4WD is recommended.
