I would not be so sure.
People are finding them right now not too far south of there.
Go look OP and tell us what you find.

Active species are active regardless of location.

There have been many collections of West-coast and European Gymnopilus spectabilis [G.junonius] that are reported to be inactive...

That is what happens when you use 1 name for a bunch of different species.

I would like to see one single observation of G. spectabilis west of the Rockies with microscopy to support it.

Mushroomobserver doesn't have any, a few observations in California but none with microscopy, some look like they could be Gymnopilus ventricosus or validipes. They all look the same to my eyes...

Yeah, I really don't think that G. "spectabilis" occurs on the west coast, or if it does, it occurs very rarely in isolated hardwood dominant areas.
