Do you think this is wise? will the roads be ok this time of year (end of Feb?)

thanks for your help
We did the reverse a few years ago in April, and had to go the long way round due to passes still being closed.

We were going SFO > South Lake Tahoe > Yosemite > Vegas > PHX. We couldn't do the quicker route from South Lake Tahoe to the Park, and from Yosemite we had to go through Barstow to Vegas.
