They said that he was flying a rented 182... anyone know the tail #? I didn't see the one from my flight school on the flight line when I flew on Friday... I guess I could just call.

Just out of curiosity I looked at the route on a map. There is a significant range between Breckenridge and Jefferson in fact that is the Continental Divide, and the mountain where they located the crash is 13,370' high.
