ah moon pass, haven't done that one in a while but the road gets pretty chewed up in spots after the snow melts. my JK handled it fine on 33s but i'd bring a tire plug kit and a compressor. not 100% sure on current trail conditions though, check with the local ranger station before you head up. the last stretch near the top can get washed out and the rocks get loose.

Moon Pass Road is pretty straight forward, as it’s pretty wide, but a fun day trip. If there is snow, it can get a little spicy. Taking an RV through the tunnels on the south end with no advance vehicle can get a little nervous because of the risk of oncoming traffic, as the tunnel are only wide enough for one rig.

Have fun…
