14er camping and trails

[Coolhandz]

Hello. Got the cybertent and almost all our other gear ready to go. Anyone tackle a 14er with their CT yet? Was thinking Antero or Princeton, but open to ideas. Not gonna lie, I'm not experienced at off-roading so something easier would be preferable. Maybe there's other people going up and we could make a weekend of it? Just looking for some suggestions or ideas. Thanks.

Take a look at crestone and crestone needle. There is some light off roading to get to trailhead (~3 miles) and great places to camp near the trailhead. The summit is no joke so make sure you are experienced climbing 14ners​

Mount Evans? Oh, camping. No, I don't know CO well enough to know.

The goal was to try and drive up as close to the summit as we could get. I believe both Antero and Princeton get you within a couple hundred feet. There was one, I can't remember which, that has a mine near the top and there was nice clear area near it where you could camp above the tree line. I thought it was one of those.

It could be helpful to completely read the off road section of the CT user manual. I plan to do this myself before I hit the off-road trails. Like you I have little to no experience and our trucks have incredible features I'm not familiar with.
