Beautiful drive up from Silverton and back through Lake City. I didn’t realize how close to off-roading this trip was going to be. Definitely need a 4-wheel drive vehicle with high ground clearance. It took about an hour and a half going up and an hour and a quarter going down. Most of the drive is washed out gravel road with about five technical switchbacks over exposed rock. I’m glad I didn’t have to figure out how two vehicles would pass on this narrow single track. The sunrise views were worth the white knuckle ride in a rented full size truck.

High Clearance 4x4 Recommend if you are starting the trail on the west side of Engineer Pass on Million Dollar Highway 550 County Road 18 (CR-18) I’d say the first 5 miles are pretty intense all the way up. It took us a couple hours to 3/4 of the trail(First half about 10 miles total). The last 5 miles were pretty easy to the top. From the top of engineer pass to Lake City the roads where really easy (last half of trail 20 miles). We did a about two hours with stops for pictures. Very beautiful drive.

Loved the ride. Sure it’s rough. Lots of big rocks on all the trails here. Rewarding views and fresh crisp air. Alpine loop includes this segment. Stop and look for others coming uphill. I encourage all to take care of these areas so as not to lose them like so many in the East were shut down because of abusive use

The wife and I drove the cinnamon trail pass in the morning and wound up in Silverton as they said the Engineer pass was closed. The closet way back to Lake City is thru the pass so we left Ouray off of 550 in a Jeep Cherokee . We nearly topped out at engineer pass but the snow at the very top turned us around. Ouray to engineer pass turn off is very rough...
