Would you mind sharing the location of a few pictures (maybe even with Google Maps links)?

Great pictures!
The holy trinity of mountain passes! They are easily found on Google Maps and are all connected. My suggestion is to do it in the following sequence: Furka, Grimsel, Susten.

For your info this year the passes actually opened pretty late. The Susten Pass was only opened less than 2 weeks ago. There were a lot of storms and rainfall at high altitudes generate snow. So best plan for your ED mid June onwards.
