Howdy fellow flyers! Looking for some advice from those that live/fly in the western mountain areas. I'm planning on flying to San Diego from Indiana this September to see my son graduate Marine boot camp. I'm considering a west-bound track (think Interstate 80) to Salt Lake City, then a southern course to Page, AZ to take in the sites. Would like to fly the VFR corridors over the Grand Canyon on the way to southern CA. Eventually, I'll trek north toward Seattle, then progress my way east with a stop in Jackson, WY. Then I'll finish the trip with a pass over Devils Tower and the Badlands before returning home. Anyone with advice on passes that are frequently used in the mountain regions? Along with educating myself on the intricasies of mountain flying, I plan on doing the "mountain flying" only under VFR conditions.
