We visited Dinosaur many yrs ago, when it was just getting off the ground...recently, I saw a special on Discovery, I believe, .. the digs are more complete and it is well worth the time.
In Vernal, there is/was a campground set in a small valley.
Regarding Colorado...there are so many options..it all depends on how
far off I-70 you want to travel. There are many high altitude passes, some of which can be a challenge in an RV ..
Denver has the US Mint and several other neat attractions...Colorado Springs (south) has, in the area, Pikes Peak, 7 Falls, Garden of Gods (which I understand is not what it used to be)..Crested Butte is beautiful, Aspen...Salida is one of our favorite towns in southern Coloraodo.. Durango area in Southwest Corner has Mesa Verde near by...Silverton is an option...Ouray too. Both interesting and in beautiful area...if considering that area, including Telluride, you will want to check the hiway condition...as there has been major construction on it for the last several years and makes it tricky with an rv.
UTAH is awesome too...Arches National Park, on the east side...off I-70..
Canyonlands, Bryce, Zion and a number of beautiful areas in between.
Since you have some lead time...contact the visitors agency in each state you are visiting and each will send you an informative booklet with maps etc.
Have FUN !
