If 3500 pounds is your maximum towing weight the Honda would not be just fine. It would be, at best, marginal. Forget going into the mountains unless you like driving really slow and loading your engine. Check the empty weight of the TM then add the air condtioner, awning, etc. Now add anything else you might put in the TM and you're past the limit. If you check, the Honda is probably rated at 3500 lbs towing if it (the Honda) is only carrying two people and nothing else.
Sorry, but I think you will damage your vehicle if you try to tow this TM very far.
