Not sure if this is the right place, but I just read in the Denver Post that Colorado residents (I know RVers are not in this group) are beginning to resent all us vacationers that come to the state to spend our hard earned money. We're using to many of their hiking trails, putting too much strain on the Parks, and causing too much traffic problems.
Interesting California and Nevada spend lots of money on advertising trying to get more visitors to their states. If Colorado does not want you there are places that will gladly take your tourism money. And outside of Las Vegas and Reno/Tahoe there is not a busy crowded road in all the rest of the 110,540 square miles of Nevada including one of the least visited national parks.
I also suspect places in Colorado like Leadville, Glenwood Springs, Grand Junction, Pagosa Springs, Cortez, etc. are much less anti tourism than the Denver area.
