High terrain can be overflown at 8500 ft VFR with no problems based
on your plan of LVS-TAFOY-SAF.

I do it frequently.

But then, living in Colorado, 8500 is the lower limit of my
regular cruising altitude.

Call me from HUT, I'll meet you in LVS and you can follow me. I'll
be in the white & green cherokee.
