Drink a lot of water is number one. It’s always a little cooler the higher you go. Going south from Denver on 25 is an easy drive with a couple of passes that make the engine rev a little. Take your time and enjoy

If you have a road visit Animas Forks. Just east of Silverton, CO it's the coolest ghost town I have ever seen.

Is there anything special to do on an ONAN 4000 Genny?

You'll need to adjust the carburetor on your generator, easy to do.
Check your Onan owners manual.

Your fresh water hose "might" freeze.
