I know that Sonora Pass in the Sierra is not recommended for trailers -- I have driven it in a truck several times. But we'd like to boondock in the high country up there, since the snow is gone due to the drought.
So that is the question -- our trailer is very small and light. It has electric brakes. My Tacoma has had no trouble pulling the trailer up steep hills, and down has been no trouble -- just put it in low gear. I would never take a big trailer on those hairpin turns -- but with proper caution, is this possible and safe with my particular rig?
Thanks in advance for your expert advice.
I have gone over the pass many times. I wouldn't hesitate to tow a small trailer like your's over it. Have fun.
