Planning to climb MT Princeton and want to drive to the upper trailhead. I have a GMC AT4 HD. Can anyone let me know if my truck is too big to navigate this road safely? Google searches indicated that it might be a tough run to the upper trailhead with my full size truck. Thanks in advance for any knowledge or advice.

You can do it but its narrow at the top. Little to no room to pass. Try looking on youtube for a video of it. May help you decide.

14ers.com is a great resource.

They allow users to submit conditions updates, including for trailheads. Personally I would just plan to park at the radio towers. At that point you are already right below tree-lined, and its a pretty quick shot to the summit from there. There is no parking on the shelf road past the radio tower area.
