[Cdt-l] Where would 1,500 miles be?

[Bob Sartini]

According to Guthook.  If you are on the official route, then 1500
miles is a bit past Steamboat Springs, really just 31 miles  south of
the Wyoming border. I think you can fly out of Steamboat to many
places but it can't be cheap. on United Express to Denver.
