My husband and I took this tour last year, in October. While most days were too cool for shorts, we each brought one pair of shorts (conservative, knees covered), which we did wear a couple of times.
Um, I hate to tell you this but unless you're Asian American you aren't going to "blend" no matter what you wear. You might be dressed less touristy or more appropriately but you'll still be a gaijin. Just go with it.

I would say no. I’ve been several times and unless they are a modest Bermuda. you will blend better in long pants
I would say yes, if it's hot. Presumably you're a white guy, so you're never going to blend in.

Hey, I meant blend better clothing wise
Two years living there and the two things I was most happy about returning to the US was (1) American style pizza and (2) blending in.
Claudia - If NM pizza is anything like CO pizza, I don't know what you're excited about.
I say this as being originally an east coaster.
