I took a road trip with my Stanford roommate to a Stanford-Colorado football game at Folsom Field in the 1990s (can't remember the exact year). It was a beautiful setting and Boulder is an awesome town. Took a side trip to Estes Park/Rocky Mountain National Park.
I remember that Stanford lost the game on a controversial--well, controversial to Stanford fans--last-minute touchdown. But I would still recommend without reservation Boulder, CO for a September road trip.

If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
