Great mileage but you have to take into account that you:
a) Descended almost 5000 ft. over the trip, which will add several mpg
b) Started at 4800 ft., where you get 15% better mpg due to reduced air density (engine is effectively smaller).
Your mpg was about what would be expected for Saabs, which are very economical. If you had done the round trip and gotten that mileage it would have been really exceptional.
