Notice several mountain passes on this route. I have pulled over some before on our travels but this many will be more than all those put together! However, don't see other routes thus far in my planning. How are the passes? Switch backs are the concern not just the altitudes. Thanks,

Rabbit Ears Pass isn't much of a problem in your travel direction as it is two lanes uphill most of the way to the summit so just keep right and you'll do fine. The grade down the other side is an easy one. Lots of RV's on both these passes.

Hoosier Pass just south of Breckenridge has some switchbacks as you approach the summit. So switchbacks on the downhill side of that pass. I think your biggest issues might be the traffic in Steamboat Springs and Breckenridge, esp. if it's a weekend.
