Hello, everyone I am wanting to take a flight from "COE" Coeur D'Alene, ID
to "GTF" Great Falls, MT I was wanting to do this in my Cessna 150 Any
advice or helpful hints from some one thats done the trip over the Rockies
in a 150 I know I will have to be at really high altitudes just wondering on
how well the 150 will perform.

The direct route is never more than 30 nm from an airport and highest
terrain is about 9200 ft and you could probably find a route
that you never need to fly above 85-9500 ft (I don't have the
sectional handy, just my IFR charts).

I agree with the other posters -- a mountain flying course or at
the very least, a mountain flying checkout with an experienced
CFI.
