Seeing is Believing - Aspen - In September

JMHO,
Wonderful, but no one said anything about Colorado. You do know that the Rockies exist outside that state, right? The friend's warning was about the specific route we're doing - US2 along Glacier NP and the upper part of Idaho where he has traveled extensively.
I am avoiding CO like the plague. I do not want to be pulled over and searched after leaving. Of course, I'm going to run into the same issue leaving Mass.

But as for you not coming here, fine, more room for the rest of us ;)
To the OP, I think you're fine anywhere in the Rockies (CO, WY, MT) in September. October gets a bit more dicey... could be beautiful, could be a blizzard.
