Also, if you have the time, instead of taking 70 to 89 to get from Arches to Bryce, take 24 and 12 through Capitol Reef and Escalante.

From a time standpoint, I took this going the other way - I left Panguitch in the morning and got to Bryce shortly after 8am, and spent a couple hours hitting all the lookouts. I took 12 to 24 to Capitol Reef and spent another couple hours. I made it to Moab by dinnertime.
