September is one of the best months of the year for camping and sightseeing in Colorado and Utah. Fewer crowds, warm days for hiking and biking and cool nights for sleeping. Generally uncrowded campgrounds, although high-altitude Forest Service campgrounds close around mid-September. Aspen trees turning bright yellow, gold, and even orange, also around the middle of the month.
That's when you want to visit Mesa Verde NP, Chaco Culture National Historic Park, Canyon de Chelly NM, Arches NP, Capital Reef NP, Bryce Canyon NP, Zion NP, Grand Canyon NP, Monument Valley, and many other national and state parks and monuments in the Four Corners area. You can also ride the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad in Durango, visit mining/ski towns like Telluride, drive jeep roads around Silverton, and soak in hot springs in Ouray.
So, visit the Four Corners in September and see everything you may miss next winter!
