Imogene Pass in a Toyota 4Runner.

Derek from the 4Runner Lifestyle team hits the Imogene pass trail just outside Telluride Colorado. Unfortunately due to snow the backside going down into Ophir seemed impassible, but in this video we will briefly see some of the sights along Imogene pass.
From Tom Boy mine, to the 13.114 ft summit itself.

Great video! Thanks for sharing

[@claudiacanales2662]

Stunning footage! Awesome 4Runner! Thanks for sharing!

[@OzCapNWA]

I've been over Imogene several times in my 4Runner, amazing trail and some good pucker factor. Great video!!

[@4runnerlifestyle]

It's easily one of our favorite trails out there! and that is definitely true! that first ascent from telluride always gets me 🤣

[@xDeltaBravox]

Man, just that view. I’ve never been to Co, but I can already tell if I go I won’t want to leave. That area looks absolutely beautiful.

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Its incredible up there, very hard to beat haha and very hard to leave for sure!

[@Ottercreekoverland]

Great video with my morning coffee, I was in the San Juan’s in '21. It’s definitely worth the 17 hour drive from Iowa!

[@GuillermoGonzalez-zelglez]

Wow amazing views thanks for shearing and explaining, great tour of that amazing place and nice 4Runner

[@Juan0481]

Absolutely love it, keep them coming!

[@4runnerlifestyle]

🙌❤

[@therealcarterhansen]

Woww man! Incredible shots. It's not often you see such a well filmed overlanding adventure. From one photographer to another, hats off!

[@4runnerlifestyle]

[@mikegomezfilms]

GREAT video. Need more of this content. I'd love to hit Imogene Pass in the fall.

[@jeffhenn9318]

Absolutely need more videos like this. Love the video...love the website.

[@4runnerlifestyle]

❤🙌 huge thanks! we will work on getting more of these up!

[@LangDu21]

Awesome trai and mind blowing sceneries. I’d love to take that trail one day. Thank you

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Thanks man! 🙌 Definitely worth going if you get the chance, one of our favorite places.

[@guidominadisospiro3553]

Thank you for this very informative video!

[@claudehirsch6906]

Love seeing trail content like this! would love to see more like how or why you would use a certain tool on the trail. Haven't done imogene, always do black bear but this makes me wanna hit it next year instead.

[@JackPawwars]

Absolutely love this trail video! Would love to see more in the future!!!

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Thanks for the feedback!! we will have more videos like this coming soon!

[@GrahamCain]

That was one hell of a day to be up there, especially for a first-time Imogene driver like me. The snow at the summit was sketchy, but well worth the view!

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Awesome catching you on the trail up there man! glad you guys made it down smoothly!

[@skylark1772]

We should reserve the words Breathtaking and Awesome for scenery like this. Thanks for the secondhand high.

[@louiep9862]

Definitely would like to do something like this in my 4RNR,nothing too crazy or dangerous unless you're careless. Those are some nice views,just breathtaking.

[@4runnerlifestyle]

This is a great trail for that if you don't mind a little bit of crawling (not really that bad just some rocks here and there) Especially in the summer. This trail is absolutely gorgeous in the summer! and I have actually done this trail bone stock in the TRD Offroad so it's definitely doable!

[@thecamerasofeli]

Beautiful views!

[@jairoramos2584]

Awesome shots 🙌🏼

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Thank you 🙌 Glad you enjoyed them

[@ChrisArrowood7309]

Loved it! I just got mine (2021 4R) and can't wait for some adventures! Thanks for inspiring me!

[@ericnexplore]

Did enjoy the video. Great drone shots. Thanks for sharing your journey. Could you please make more shows like this one. Greetings from Yellowknife 🇨🇦

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Thanks man! Absolutely! We will have a few more on similar trails from this area here soon!

[@TheGruffness]

Thx for taking us up

[@michaeldouglass4817]

Dude you're a stud. Awesome rig, too.

[@4runnerlifestyle]

🙌

[@keltonekblad3958]

More like this!! Loved the whole video!

[@AdamFindNuts]

Love the no-frills content. I would had thought those are 285s if you didn't tell us. I see those BFG on 265/70/17 are very capable and that view at the summit looks amazing. Subbed.

[@4runnerlifestyle]

We will definitely be doing more of these! loving these 265's so far, eventually definitely going to 285 mainly for looks honestly but had no issues on Imogene or Ophir passes on them!

[@xDeltaBravox]

Love the video! Keep it going! Maybe a group run at some point also!

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Definitely need to do this!

[@rabones22]

Love the 4 Runner build!

[@Joeyotat4r]

Great video! Just subbed, 2012 T4R SR5 trying to build it out for overlanding. Would love to see early 5th gen content.

[@VladimirGolev]

Do you remember which dates did you go? Autumn looks beautiful there.

[@4RunnerNathan]

This is awesome, you need to upload more of these!

[@4runnerlifestyle]

🙌 thanks man!

[@tackthecack677]

great video and content. typically don't like too much talking but you struck a good balance between footage and what to expect up there. perfect.

[@ktshepherds675]

Love the video. 👍

[@tomshane7231]

Enjoyed your video, ready to go back out to Ouray !

[@DeafeningPew]

Awesome. I know the production of this content is grueling, but I really enjoy it. Getting a crew together to tackle black bear pass would be pretty badass!

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Thanks man! Good to hear!! we will have to look at getting a black bear video in the works!

[@claudiacanales2662]

Absolutely agree, amazing footage!!!!

[@kai__larsen]

Love the video! Definitely want to see more videos of this style. In the field vlogs/cinematic videos

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Thanks man! We'll work on getting a few more in this genre up!

[@calvinvesco9883]

Did black bear pass in my stock runner last year. It was pretty scary!

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Ooooo that is scary! but glad you made it safe!!! Hard to beat those beautiful areas, and it's hard to beat doing them in a 4Runner 😎🙌

[@willienillie6337]

Nice video.

[@35jdub]

Was in that area 2nd week of October and did California Pass! Was a great ride and saw what I think was the starting water shed point of the Rio Grande river! Right under 14k ft up!

[@SalvadorAndradeHN]

Mooooreee

[@Robert-Jaudon]

Yes, Please more like this. This was great and man, that snow had to make you nervous. Need good tread for sure! One question, from there where to you go? Do you have to go down Black Bear Pass or is there another route? Well done!

[@4runnerlifestyle]

When passable it drops down on the back side down towards ouray which is where the trail eventually comes out, unfortunately that side was shaded and had pretty deep snow, I actually watched a couple guys in Tacomas try to make it down those switch backs and have to recover themselves a couple times before turning around. In the summer and fall that side is no problem!

[@jtlegionnaire6310]

Amazing video, Question for you, did you ever consider a tacoma? Or a pickup for this?

[@desperado5897]

Can you do more videos with this 4Runner?

[@kylesteinhauser2535]

The 4runner is tight as hell, but what about the pants and shirt and hat? It's a cool look, what are you rocking?

[@Treetopflyer777]

Probably asked a million times but what lift are you running?

[@Treetopflyer777]

@@DerekSturman thanks for the reply!! Looks perfect

[@nathandiehl581]

What month was that? What drone setup do you use?

[@angolain1]

I’m also curious the month & week you drove it? Video released in March 2023, does that mean you drove it in spring 2023 or fall 2022? Color of the leaves suggests a fall drive. Research indicates it typically closes mid-October as the snow starts falling. I’m hoping to drive it 3rd week of October, but concerned/wondering if it will be closed because of snow. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@4runnerlifestyle]

This was the 3rd week of October, and the Drone is the DJI mavic 3 🤙

[@4runnerlifestyle]

@@angolain1 I just did it again this year around the 2nd week of October and there was snow so I would recommend mid or late summer

[@TrailRiderTN]

How much lift are you running with the 265 tires?

[@TheDreamOfATree]

What month was this?

[@chinmoybordoloi]

Are those "beadlock" wheels ? @tacomalifestyle

[@DerekSturman]

These ones aren’t they just have like a fake bead in there for looks I assume 😁

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Not actual bead locks just has the little indents for looks on those wheels

[@HenryTheBoilermaker3rdYear]

Why the heck do we Australians don't have 4runner model line?!

[@tjsylvia285]

I can't get anybody to respond from 4Runner Lifestyle. I bought a bracket for my Maxtrax to mount to my truck, 3 weeks ago. They took my money (Over $400) but wont tell me when it will ship. I have emailed them several times and I have not received any emails back, except the ads they flood my inbox with. They don't have a phone number, and when you do contact them by email, you get a reply saying not to keep emailing them and they will get back to you when they can. It shouldn't be this hard to do business with a company unless it's by design. Do yourself a favor and shop somewhere else.

[@4runnerlifestyle]

Very sorry to here this, We want to make sure this gets resolved properly, We can call you if you would like. We can also take a look by DM on ig or it sounds like you have had some issues with email but we do have a full time team of more than 6 guys that just respond to customer support emails every weekday. We should have responses to all emails by the end of each business day so there is a high likely hood there is some issue there if you are not getting a response. however you prefer to message us we can take a look!
