Sweet. It'll take a few years, but by consensus, it looks like I'll be able to personally check out some of your conference's preferred facilities. It'll seem like forever, but I know it'll come. (Mines and Pueblo)

Packfootball Nailed it. Fort Lewis has by far the worst stadium. It's definitely the most gorgeous setting in the RMAC and has to be at the top for any level. But the stadium? Oh boy.

For Western State - having halftime on the bus or under a tree as a college football player has to feel like a joke. The away stands aren't much better and it doesn't appear as though the home side is much to mention either.
Fort Lewis' grass always appears to be in better shape than Western's field, their facilities are at least close to the field, and the away side is about equal in quality but offers better views.
As far as best stadiums, hard to not go with Mines since the upgrades there. Pueblo's new replay screen makes it close though. I rarely sat in the stands so the track never bothered me but it is certainly a downside for those in the seats.
My top 5:
1. Colorado Mines
2. CSU Pueblo
3. Colorado Mesa
4. Chadron
5. Adams State
For #4 & #5 though, they only count as half stadiums as neither even touched the away sides when they renovated. I understand money is an issue but it would've been nice to improve the visitor sides a tiny bit.

Neither did any away side upgrades, but keeping the status quo has Adams leaps and bounds ahead of Chadron on the visitor stands.

The part I don't like about CSU Pueblo and Colorado Mesa doesn't really have anything to do about the stadium itself. I like all your top three. It's the fact that I'm going to get the crap knocked out me one of these days since there is really no Home - Visitor sides. You are all comingled. My mouth sorta tends run a little bit.
