    colorado requires sept 1 to april 31 along 70 between mm 259 and mm 133. but i think colorado also has the highest peaks in the country. 11,000 feet at the tunnels.

    haven't really seen any other chain signs on the west. or the east.

    Google is your friend. If you type in "chain laws state by state" you will find all the information you need.
