JSmith, the Flightaware log (roughly one+ minute increments) indicates 34,000 feet and 411 knots.

The planned routing on Flightaware had them skirting the south edge of the thunderstorm complex east of Denver, rather than going to the north of it, the latter being a more direct route into Salt Lake. Perhaps, while enroute, the thunderstorms developed where they didn't quite expect.
