Daniel,
I would suggest to all that the time to learn about this stuff is in a mountain flying class before the trip, rather than learning on the fly(so to speak). Mountain flying can be a beautiful experience, and there is nothing terribly difficult in learning how to do it, but lack of knowledge can kill you.

Still had a few exciting trips before I learned to read the WX, particularly winds and diagnostic clouds.
I'd advise folks to ask a vet for go/no go advice for the first few trips.
Duayne,
I asked our vet, and he said he knew about cats and dogs, but suggested I talk to a urologist about go/no go advice.

Scott,I have now crossed the Rocky mountains (through southern Montana most times) 7 or 8 times in an RV-12, and many more times in other RV's.
With a bit of advanced research and planning, and choosing proper routes, it can be no more exciting than in most any other RV.
