Now the question is what makes for a good solar eclipse viewing?
Flat ground?
Top of a hill?
parking lot to have open horizon / avoid trees?
Clear skies... that's all that really matters. Given the time of day, the sun will be high in the sky, so tree's won't matter much.
I'd recommend as you plan your trip to try and get to a place with the longest possible totality. It's such a strange experience, it's worth going a little further to gain more time "in the dark". Being on the edge and only getting a few seconds will be disappointing when you could get 2+ minutes at the right spot.
