I was up today also, went to cedar city then did a DME arc at St.
George, (had to try out my new 430) snow on the ground around cedar city
and it was -10 at 9000 ft ...

Richard,

oh, one more recommendation:


All good stuff (Marble Canyon & Death Valley if
weather is iffy).

I'd just add (having been up today) that Winter is
here and it's bloody cold. Do file a flight plan & go prepared.
The last 70 miles will be on the plateau, which is
5000' and up. If you have to put down, you could
end up walking 30 miles just to get to a road. If
leaving from Boulder City, you can't reach FS
on the published frequency too easily heading
east, so open the flight plan on the ground. Peach
Springs VOR has an RCO which you can provide
a position report on - it's the only RCO between
the Vegas Valley and GCN, almost exactly 1/2
way.
