At TO max gross weight the single engine ceiling of the Seminole is well below the airport elevation at Rocky Mountain Airport.
The Apaches in Florida will probably be able to maintain flight on one engine due to the low altitude of the Florida airports, but they will still be 60 year old airframes.
The Twin Comanche is about ten years newer, and a more challenging aircraft to fly well. With a 6,600' single engine ceiling, it has the best performance. Get GOOD training, not minimum checkout with an experienced Twin Comanche instructor.
