    How deep is the water crossing at Coney Flats? What would you say is minimum recommended mods to safely (dry-ly) navigate? Thanks.

    I ran it in a stock 2012 JK in 2013. Water is not the most difficulty on this trail.

    Your rig sounds fine. Will have a few tight turns. Plenty of ground clearance.

    Did the two water/mud pits get filled in? IIRC they were deeper than the pond (Coney Creek) crossing.

    Looking forward to seeing everyone Saturday! FYI planning to run Middle St Vrain first then Coney. We should have a great group, bringing two others with me that aren’t on the forum.
