I wanted to go VFR if possible but not a big deal as i hold an IR anyway. Its a Turbo Arrow with oxygen so we can climb if the need is there but prefer not to. To be honest i haven't really looked into the route yet other than a quick clance at Google Map, will sort everything out on the ground.
Are you leaving your a/c in the west once you get there or going back?
I'm moving out there so it will be a one way journey, VFR. It's better going west to east as the prevailing winds are from the west/north-west, they get pretty strong in east Utah/west Wyoming. I'm going to cross the Rockies just south of Logan, 12,500ft to 13,000ft if I can and on oxygen.
