I-70 Colorado in April
SO we're planning a trip to Moab, UT the end of April coming from the east. I'm hearing that it's not unusual to get snow at that time of year and I-70 may be closed then. Any comments?

Traffic on I-70 can be terrible, but end of April is mud season - most of the ski areas are closed but still more than enough snow to keep a lot of people out of the mountains.
That said, if schedule permits, avoid going west Friday afternoon or evening and Saturday until about mid day.
Going East, avoid traveling Sunday.
Mud season - funny. Our usual 4-season stomping grounds are the NY Adirondacks and there's mud season there too.
We have reservations in Moab. Current plans are to hit Escalante for a few days then Kanab.
