Default Flatlander heading to Boulder, CO -- need sage advice

Hey all,

I'm planning to head out in my 68 Cherokee 180 the first week of September
with my 20 yr old son to visit my brother in Boulder, CO. I'm a flatlander
(Atlanta, Georgia area) and though I have no plans to do any mountain flying
and wouldn't without instruction, I'm flying towards the mountains. That's
enough to get me looking for some good advice/pointers. An old pilot friend
of mine said carry more speed on final than usual, that sort of thing.
We'll be loaded lightly.

Give me some good pointers if you will.

Thanks,
Biker Bill
