For those interested, here is photo of what it looked like about 10
seconds
before the event.

Trust me, I learned my lesson and I will not be going VFR on top like this
again without options like enough altitude to glide to a visible landing
site and the IFR ticket in hand. Even then I'm going to think twice about
attempting it. A second engine would have been great to have!

Wow. That photo made my blood run cold. It's beautiful, but knowing that
there's a chance that you have to descend into it is chilling.

I am glad that things turned out OK for you. Thanks for posting.
