To Aspen via Independence Pass
 
I'm planning to travel from Denver to Aspen Via Independence Pass. I have Toyota Camry 1998 Model. Is it possible to drive through Independence Pass with this Vehicle.

When are you going? Right now should be o.k. although I confess I prefer the other route with fewer sharp turns - but if you've never done it can be pretty.

Thanks for the quick reply!!
I'm planning to go to Aspen next week.

No problem with your Toyota Camry. The turns are sharp and blind, particularly heading into Aspen from the Twin Lakes side. Take it easy, watch the blind curves and don't speed. The trip is spectacular indeed. Just hang onto your wallet when you get to Aspen. LOL

Should be no problem.
