I would love to help, but the further west I have been is Cheyenne Wyoming.

@SW-User Do you have specific areas you liked? Natural or historical sites?

@TravelSolar one winter I went from Durango CO to Farmington NM/bisti badlands into the painted desert and Sedona.
Another I went all over the southwest but my favorites were Tucson and Joshua tree. I wasn't into quartzite like a lot of people, though it was cool.
I had to stay southwest because I was in a van but loved it.

Given the mountain crossings and generally high elevations between NE and the PNW, I think you're starting awfully late in the season. It can turn into serious winter on those mountain passes. I would've recommended the obvious: Yellowstone, but its average elevation of 8000 feet makes it iffy at best.
The safest bets at this time of year are along the Pacific coast. Low elevation and rain--not snow or ice. Coastal beauty, especially Oregon...and northern California--the redwoods--but still, an emphasis on cool-weather clothing and gear. Coastal parts of Olympic Park in NW WA are also pretty.
