Redington Pass, Tucson, AZ
Does anyone have any experience with Redington Pass on the East Side of Tucson? I am coming down to Tucson this coming weekend (Nov 8-10) for University of Arizona's homecoming weekend. From what I can see there are some tricky spots. I have a 99 4Runner with the tall springs up front and 2in lift in the back. Also new tires.
Planning on hitting it Sunday morning early I think. Others are welcome!

I've been up there a few times. Three Feathers and Chimney Rock are fun. Just go up there and see what you can find. I never liked going up there much because there are so many people who go there. Check out Charouleau Gap in Oro Valley, much better and it's a bit closer.

I'll check that one out. I'm staying in the Oro Valley/N. Tucson area so that might be a better option.

The Gap is much more what your looking for and if your staying in Oro Valley you will be way closer as well. North on Oracle to Golder Ranch take a right down to the 4 way stop at Lago Del Oro turn left and go about 3 miles till you see the Kiosk on the Right. I would suggest going to the first cattle guard and playing around as you go. I would love to join you but Sunday morning is definitely out for me. If you wanted to wait till about 1pm I would be able to go. Have fun it is a great time to wheel in the catalina's

I haven't been out to the Gap yet, but I'd be interested in checking it out his weekend with you guys. Afternoon would work better for me too, so...what's the plan?

I'm pretty open. I'll be heading to Tucson Friday after work. I'm up early everyday, can't say the same for my buddy who's still in college haha. Does 10 AM work? I can do earlier too, I'm pretty flexible. I just need to be back by 2 or so.

I'm an up-early kind of guy too, but 10AM works for me. Should hopefully give your buddy enough time to wake up and get moving! And we should have plenty of time before 2PM to do some exploring without getting ourselves into too much trouble...
