I think I may have needed to be more specific. I'm heading from
Charlotte, NC to Lexington Kentucky and then on up to Northwest Ohio.
You had me going there for a moment when you referred to following I-85
since to my knowledge it doesn't cross the mountains.

The consensus appears to be the gap by Asheville that heads up toward
Greeneville through the river valley.



Alright... I finally pulled out the charts and had a look. Charlotte V259
(through Hickory) to HMV (Holston Mountain). Then V53 through Hazard, KY (AZQ)
the rest of the way to Lexington. I don't think there's a minimum enroute
altitude over 7500 feet.... easily done in a C-172. Just pick a decent VFR day
to go.
