I would fly to Rochester because lacking a reliable altimeter, VFR seems the safest option. Given the options, only there can you descend from the MEA, and conduct an approach and landing, while remaining in VMC.

I would choose 4 option, because it's the safest one.

Option 3 sounds the best, Cross check altitude by asking tower, check gps altitude and baro alt at FAF. will break out at 800. Don’t want to fly in IMC for too long with icing conditions and potentially inop equipment. Worst option is 5

And able to make it to son via car if needed

Option 6 Jump out with a parachute. Great video however Im not sure which one I would choose.

Trevor Jacob back plan

Choice 4. Better be safe then sorry.

I am of the chicken little school of flying. As I am not sure of my actual altitude I would fly to the VFR airport.

I guess it depends what your comfortable with but if you have the fuel and able to land with the legal 45 min reserve KROC is vfr.

Five makes more sense to me but I don't fly yet
