Pleased to hear you are on the road and having a good time !

Cotrip will have any travel alerts that may impact your journey. This is the page specific to CO82 and Independance pass. Use common sense as the road can be open but hazardous with icey conditions, particuarly in the morning following a cold night. If you are travelling today the weather looks quite settled with temps not dropping below freezing, but that changing over the next couple of days.

Colorado Springs to Moab via Independance will be a long day on the road as will Vegas to SF but both are doable. I would try to be in Bryce on the day you leave Arches to give yourself time at Bryce and Zion, or at least as far as Tropic.

Have a great trip and please update us !
