Hey Jp8burner, I've been commuting from RDM since early 2010 so a little over 5 years now. It's not bad, horizon usually will get you on, it's rare to get bumped, but it will happen eventually. I've never driven to pix to go to work but I've been bumped coming home and rented a car to drive over. The pass in the winter can be good or terrible but you won't know till you get there. Overall it's not too bad to commute to RDM, lots of flights all day long. Horizon pilots also have the ability to sit in FA jump, as long as it's open, and free up the cockpit, I've had guys do that for me.
