Can anybody advise me if the Dargo High Plains Road is suitable for off road vans north of Grant Junction?

That road is suitable for anything, it is just not sealed all the way.

Fairly slow going up the north end near Mt. St. Bernard with a van in tow due to being a little steep, but with care shouldn't have any problems.

Subject to the snow season when its closed by snow. And caution is advised over the shoulder season when the surface is wet/muddyslippery in places.
