You'd likely be totally fine IMO as long as you rode with a group with spotters! I usually ride with @geekyadam but would feel comfortable with my stock Grand Cherokee (except tires) on this trail, and I'm also a noob.
Thanks wk2blackpearl!

Maybe I'll gather up the nerve and try it with a small group here. :)

You have a 4Runner. That thing will surprise you with what it’s capable of, even stock. I hear you on not feeling comfortable solo cause I’m like that. But if running with even 1 other person on this trail I’d tell you to go for it without hesitation. I wouldn’t say that about many trails. This one is a great entry for new wheelers IMO.

Thanks Nootherids! I was a little nervous a couple of times on Peters Mill Run a couple weekends ago, but I never had an issue. Even a couple of areas where I thought it was close, @sabjku told me he still saw plenty of clearance .... which definitely eased my mind. A little reassurance goes a long way!

Sounds like we have a great crew showing up on Sunday. If you have a chance check out SwellRunners latest YouTube video Overlanding is for all types and vehicles. We are all learning this together, and we will have lots of fun and make mistakes, but more fun I hope. Everyone is welcome and bring a friend. See everyone Sunday.
