Doug,
I no longer live on any of your proposed routes, but I want to make sure
that you are prepared to travel in these areas at this time of the year.
Be sure to carry a couple of sleeping bags (per person) and other
emergency supplies. Water, food, maybe a small propane heater, cell
phone, etc. Stop for fuel often if you get into bad weather, and pay
attention to weather advisories. Do not take unnecessary risks. People
still die in storms out here.
