2006 Toyota Tacoma Prerunner

Hey fellow Toyota enthusiasts. We love Toyota and currently park a 2006 Prerunner, 2012 FJ, and a 2012 Scion IQ. My question is about my Prerunner. The towing weight is 3500 lbs and we want to purchase a camp trailer. I have found a couple trailers with a dry weight of 2600 lbs or less and max gross weight of 3500 lbs. We live at sea level and anywhere we want to go is going to be going up. I don't want to over stress the engine on my Prerunner and am looking for some advice. Can I safely tow a trailer of that weight up a 3000 foot climb at a 5% grade?
