I hope that VX crazy doesn't know something that we don't: "...if it's still open..."
E-Hill is a great choice because the VX is suited for its very tight switchbacks. The 3.5 rated trail can easily be negotiated by even a novice off-roader in a VX. And, is there any other Isuzu that would be as much fun on the 75 mile highway trek to the trailhead? I'd like to see us do E-Hill for the VX-Only run, leaving early enough to Visit Hell's (The Devil's?) Kitchen, the Joint Trail (a great hike to a very cool cavern), and the River Confluence Viewpoint. Challenging, but undamaging obstacles include S.O.B. Hill, Squeeze Play, Silver Staircase and Coors Hill (IIRC).
