Driving Cross-Country Website

Three of my friends took off on an expedition from CT to San Jose...

I made a website that tracks our progress live provided we have cell reception.. I am logging all sorts of data such as speeds and altitude profiles. Feel free to check it out here:

We are currently in Albuquerque, we were trying to figure out if a trip up to the 4 corners/monument valley is feasible this time of year..

Does anyone know the road conditions this time of year on 550 northeast through NM, and on 160 back southeast towards Cameron and on to the Grand Canyon?

Thanks

Most of the time, these roads are open. The exceptions are while a storm is happening, if it is a significant one. But if there are closures, road crews will try to get them open again as quickly as possible if that does happen -- and our normally dry weather here in the southwest helps as well.

I work at eBay for 2 months, then choose a different route to drive back home.
