Default First West to East Sierra Crossing from Hollister

On Labor Day, Brian Choate flew his DG300 from Hollister to Truckee, setting a
milestone by crossing the Sierras in the middle over Yosemite.
As far as we know, this is the first time someone "really" crossed the Sierras
from
west to east, rather than going around the north or south end.
Here is the link to the article with flight trace, sat photo and pics:

Congratulations Brian!
