Ground Clearance

I'm looking at purchasing either an 02 95 Aero or 03 95 Aero.
This board has been immensely helpful in eliminating two of my concerns- specifically fuel economy and snow driving aptitude as it relates to these models.
I have a third concern. I live in Colorado and hike frequently. This often involves driving to trailheads or spots that are unpaved and somewhat uneven and rocky. I'm trading in a 97 4runner which oviously had no problems with those types of roads. However, the gound clearance on the 95 aero wagon looks minimal (couldn't find exact # on Edmunds). Can anyone share their personal experience with taking the aero on these types of roads? I don't expect or desire to take this car "off road"- I'm referring more to basic trailhead roads.
I have a similar concern with deep unplowed snow (I have a house up a windy mountain road) but figure snow is at least more forgiving.
