There is a North and South trailhead. Car access changes during the year as storms alter the road. Currently I "think" the north is accessible and the south high clearance is best. The forest roads are typically graded yearly.

I've never had trouble getting to the north TH in a rental car.

Maybe you should get a rental car if you're worried and financially-able. In the immortal words of my late uncle "Always pay the deductible. It's party time!"

Driving my own vehicle, I would not attempt the southern TH in a car. The northern TH - I might think about it, as Joe said - it depends how recently it was graded and how recently it rained.

In a rental...well :D

Subaru would be better if it has more than normal ground clearance.

Thanks, I have been to Rogers trough many times with my jeep but the hard times forced me to sell her. I would not go in from the south with my car, but I never been over to the north side. I'am planning a overnite trip for next month, maybe I'll have a new jeep by then or its subaru baja racing time.

For what it's worth, I took a '99 Taurus station wagon up to the north trailhead and never really felt worried. The only thing about that road: it's narrow, so having 2 cars go past one another could be tricky in spots.
