Thanks everyone for good info. We are planning our trip around the 3rd week of Sept. Want to see the Elk rut in Yellowstone and maybe the Aspens turning colors.
Personally, I like vacationing/RVing in September. Keep in mind that a lot of CG/parks close mid-September, usually around the 15th, depending on where it falls on the calendar. I know that Rafter J Bar in Hill City SD is open until October 1; the park itself should be colourful, since there's lots of trees there, of varying types.
If you're going to do both, check for closing dates on some of the places you'd like to stay.
