AS does put the following disclaimer on its website:
Informational notice. Flights to and from Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and Colorado offer an amended food and beverage selection, with fewer and/or no inflight services due to the high probability of turbulence.

I'm not sure why AS and its regional partners are unable to do a full food and beverage service to/from those states when other airlines do. I've flown many flights to/from LAS and while there can be a bit of chop near LAS, it's typically possible to do a full drink and snack service on pretty much anything except flights between LAS and SoCal (LAS-PSP can often have light chop the entire 150nm flight) or maybe PHX.
