This time of year there's not enough local traffic to back things up. The tourists haven't arrived yet doing dopy tourist things. Midweek is prime auto time.
It was below freezing at night in the mountains just the week before. A front passed over and this week was the first time some warm temps moved in this spring.
Been eyeballing it closely for a while. Though a lot of the pullouts haven't dried out yet and are still deep sticky mud. I managed to avoid those.
edit: Just checked Google - There's street view available of all the routes I wrote up so you can see the whole thing if you want spend the time clicking.
