Another gorgeous area is the high country running E-W, just NE of
Jackson Hole, WY (Wind River Range?). IMHO, it is one of the most
beautiful areas that I have flown through.


I've ridden a motorcycle and driven a car throught that area, and it
was stunning. I'll bet from the air it's fantastic!


Wouldn't want an engine-out landing, though. Not too many options.


There's very rarely no options. It's not as difficult as you might think.


Try test flying an experimental with a alternative engine in the Hole
for 150+ hours. If you keep your head screwed on straight an engine
out landing is possible in alot of places. It will just take search
and rescue a few days to get you out. :-) Thank god my V-8 has
performed perfectly.. So Far. G
