RAP to RAL

I've flown to RAP and RAL, but not between the two.
One good route would be RAL-SGU-VEL-RAP.
You may have to dodge a little to the left by HEC to
miss R2501, then a little right around some parts
of the Las Vegas Class B. St. George, UT is pretty
easy in-easy out, just use caution of the terrain NE
of SGU on your climbout, the area between SGU
and CDC is rough, may want to stay a little right
of it. Plan on 11,500. You'd cross the divide
NE of Rawlins, a fairly low point. Then
no sweat all the way to RAP. I assume this
is all VFR?
The other upside to this route, up to SGU anyway,
is a lot of Interstate 15 below you. A comforting
thing in an unfamiliar airplane. After SGU, I-15
gets tight and if you get stuck on the west side of it
and low, it's bad, we lost a bunch of planes out there
in an area we called the "coffin" at LA Center.
Oddly, this is a similar route I flew when I flew my
newly purchased airplane home from Torrance, CA.

Has anyone made this flight. I am going to look at a PA-28 180 and if I
buy
it I have to fly back.
Anyone have any recommendations on the flight.


Thanks
Kevin
