The colorful pool you saw in Yellowstone is the Grand Prismatic Spring, and there is no swimming allowed. It's about 113 meters in diameter and 37 meters deep, with near-boiling temperatures (63 - 87 C). The blue color is an optical effect, while the orange and brown are heat-adapted bacterial colonies. It's stunning and unreal. It was my favorite part of Yellowstone.

Fun fact for you. As America was being discovered and settled in the 1800's explorers found these natural wonders and quickly thought, "we need to preserve this land". Our government at the time agreed, taking note that the US does not have anything like The Louvre, Stonehenge, or Cathedrals like the ones in Cologne, Chartres, Notre Dame for example as of course we are so new compared to Europe. So our government created the National Park System to keep these areas safe from over development....so we use these parks as our national treasures if you will instead of great historical buildings of Europe. Thus our National Park System became known as, "America's Best Idea".

@danielhansen9443, true to a certain extent. However, if it hadn't been for men like John Muir and a cadre of his friends campaigning for decades, wooing presidents, etc., it would have never happened. After all, this all started before the world at large had any sense of conservation. The going thought was, "plow everything you can for farmland, chop down all the trees" (which almost eliminated the Redwoods), and nearly made the wolves go extinct. When Yellowstone finally got designated as the world's first national park, it was barely saved from miners wanting it for uranium mining, and even to this day, there are mineral hunters wanting to get at Grand Canyon. In fact, Baaj Nwaavjo/I’tah Kukveni Grand Canyon National Monument = bahj n’WAH-voh (Havasupai for “where tribes roam”); EE-tah coo-cuh-VEN-ee (Hopi for “our footprints”) was established to stop destructive uranium mining in Grand Canyon on August 8, 2023--just 8 months ago. The fight is still going on 152 years after Yellowstone was established. Will we ever learn?

The reason the mountains appear blue in Va. because specific oak and poplar trees here emit a chemical called isoprene to protect them from the weather. Isoprene reacts with the atmosphere in such a way that the light that filters down to our eyes appears blue. Virginia is a beautiful state.

If you look at a geographical map of The Lower 48, as we call it when we're excludeding Alaska and Hawaii ( 50 - 2 states ), you'll see the majority of the places in the video are part of, or adjacent to, our two major mountain rangers. The Appalachians in the East stretch from Maine South, with it's feet in Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi. The Great Smoky Mountains, the portion that crosses the borders of Tennessee and North Carolina is actually a rain forest. The Appalachian Chain is the oldest mountain range on Earth, in excess of 500 million years old. In the Smokys alone the are 129 different species of trees. By contrast, The Rocky Mountains that run up through Canada, our Western range, only has 7 or 8 species of trees. They are very young comparatively. That's why Western geology is amazing, spectacular, and sometimes dangerous. The Western coast in part of The Pacific Ring of Fire, or Pacific Rim. The plate tectonics are very active which is why you'll find volcanoes in the Northwest, up around Alaska and around the coastal areas of Western Asia. Death Valley which, I think, in Southern California, a rift valley. Few people, even if they know that, realized the desert floor is expanding there. I hope you can explore our National Parks while you are still young. But take it seriously. If you plan to hike as well as camp ALWAYS register with the Park Rangers. Let them know when you're leaving, your planned route, campsites and when you expect to return. The Rangers will be able to advise you about equally important things such as storm or fire damage of the trails you plan to use, as well as unusually high bear activity. If you need to, they'll help you re-route around any hazardous locations. Just don't forget to at least call the Rangers to let them know you're back, so they know they don't have to go looking for you. Some people worry about wild animals but every year most injuries and deaths are caused by visitors slipping on wet rocks around streams and waterfalls. Hope we see you soon! Good Luck.🧓

Not unheard of. Lake Murray in South Carolina is a prime example. I do genealogy, and there's few graves I can't get to and read, because they are underwater. In fact, if you look on a map and look at various lakes in those southern states, the lakes with the jagged edges are man-made. If a lake is natural, the shore line is smoother when looking on a map. Zoom in on any lake with a jagged edge and keep zooming and look for a little river the comes out of it. You'll see a dam sitting between the river and the lake. Plenty of hydro power in the SE. Also, in Virginia, Lake Anna is another example, but it's not for hydro power. Rather, it serves as a cooling pond for nuke power plant nearby. I knew a guy that dove in that a few times and he says there's still a house and car under water, exactly like the people just left (and the water is fine, don't let the power plant frighten you).

I routinely drive over a lake that has an old town underwater. They dammed a nearby river to create a reservoir lake to help contain flooding in other nearby areas and as a result they flooded a small town. During a drought in 2012, the water level was so low that people could walk around the remains of the former town.

They didn't do justice to Cape May, New Jersey! The entire town burned down in the 1840s, and was rebuilt at the height of the Victorian era, filling it with beautiful mansions and houses. They also neglected to mention Cape May 'diamonds' which litter the beach - a large deposit of quartz rock sits just off-shore and pebbles break off and are polished by the ocean, which then wash up on shore. When they glitter in the sun, it makes the beach look like it is covered in diamonds.

I’m from Michigan, here are a few fun facts about my home state: 4 out of 5 of the Great Lakes touch our state. We are the only state made up entirely of peninsulas. Michigan is made up of two major peninsulas (the lower and upper). We are one of the 11 states that are bigger than the entire United Kingdom. Lake Michigan is so big, you can start at the bottom of our state drive for 9 hours, and if you look to your left, it’s still the same lake. Lake Superior is larger than all of Scotland, and it has so much water it could cover all of South America in 3 feet of water (the lake is very deep). The Great Lakes are the largest source of freshwater in the planet. There is a city called Traverse City, and just a few miles off the coast in the water of Lake Michigan there is a stone henge under the water. It has carvings of mastodons and is estimated to be 12,000 years old. I’m from the South West area of the lower peninsula, but the first time I went to a city called Petosky (in the Northern part of the state), the water was 4 different shades of blue and crystal clear.

With Petoskey Stones, there’s an old Native American story that says a long time ago on the other side of Lake Michigan, there was a great fire. A mother bear (with her two cubs) could smell land on the other side of the water, so they began swimming to Michigan. The mother bear made it to shore but the two cubs drowned in the water. The mother bear cried and cried, and the Great Spirit felt sorry for her, so her two cubs were raised up and turned into the Manitou (Great Spirit) Islands, and the mother bear was turned into Sleeping Bear Dunes. The Petoskey Stones are the tears of the mother bear. They travel between Sleeping Bear Dunes and the Manitou Islands, and that’s how the mother bear and cubs communicate with each other and she knows her cubs are ok. Sleeping Bear Dunes are awesome. They are 450feet tall and pretty steep. In the summer tourists go down to the water and try to climb up the dunes. It only takes 2 or 3 minutes to get down but it can take anywhere from a half hour to 2 hours to climb up. In the summer they usually have coast guard in jet skis down there in case people get stuck and can’t make it out. They have signs posted that let people know that if they get stuck, the coast guard uses a helicopter to get them out and it costs $3,000……so you definitely don’t want to get stuck, lol.

In Europe you can travel to many countries within hours and don't have to take an exhausting flight across the Atlantic. By the way, South America is gorgeous and quite safe unless you are planning to travel into the Amazon.

There are so many wonderful places to visit in the US. Each state has a plethora of scenic views. In the west the red of the mountains and hills are due to clay and iron, green is due to some copper. Some of them are red clay like those in Arizona, Colorado, Utah & Idaho. The trees colors are because the photos were taken in the fall, one of the most colorful times to visit the US. I am from the state of Utah, there are quite a few state parks there. A couple of the places I can recommend to visit there is Bryce Canyon, Zion national park, Goblin Valley, Arches national park, Mount Timpanogos, The High Uintas, Bonneville Salt Flats, Bear Lake as well as many others.

I've visited Utah on a few occasions in my youth. I remember visiting Capitol Reef, Bryce, and Zion. I recall Bryce being absolutely gorgeous! Utah really does have some amazing scenery!

The first one, Noccalula Falls, named after a young Native American woman, (tragic story about her) in Gadsden, AL, is about 15 minutes from where I live. I was there last week. We used to go at least every other weekend when I was a child, through my late twenties, until I started working on weekends. My niece loves riding the little train (made for children and adults) that goes through the back portion of the park where deer, geese, ducks, the covered bridge, and old buildings, like the grist mill, schoolhouse, and other original buildings from the 1800s were restored and put there for tourists. There used to be a lion named Lisa that was kept in a fenced in area in the back, but thankfully enough people were concerned and made it known that she, nor any others should be there. When there is a lack of rain, the falls can actually become a trickle, but it's beautiful and fairly loud when at full force. I go up there and sit by the falls to relax. There are campgrounds where you can use tents or RVs, there's a chapel where many people get married, a hiking trail under and downstream of the falls, indoor and outdoor pavilions for private parties, a large playground and mini golf setup, barbeque competitions (one last week) called Smoke On Falls, beautiful Christmas decorations, and more. Tishamingo is Native American,like many names of locations, here.

We also have brown and Gray mountains... Out west and down south it's more reddish clay colors. Not tashomingo - Appalachian. It's actually one of the Native American tribal names I THINK it's out of one of the Algonquin tribes? (Maybe?) The red/white colors are a combo of sedimentation settling, making into rock, then wind and water wearing enough away to reveal the random patterns. Hocking hills in Ohio is GREAT. The trees especially in the Northernmost states, they tend to be slightly effected by frosty mornings towards fall (Autumn) and it turns the green to yellow, and orange and red... (eventually dead brown - then they fall off to return next spring). Yellowstone that colorful "unhealthy" pool you noted is that way naturally from the volcanic and hot springs stuff that gets brought up. So, yeah, very likely not healthy (you'd boil to death very fast there if you fell in). You should check out the California Sequoias at the Redwood National Park. You'd know better what you can show/review and what you cannot, but since you like red so much at LEAST check out the short (30 seconds): Winter in Sequoia National Park. You'll be blown away.

It's very very difficult to become a state, but there are recent talks of Puerto Rico becoming the 51st state.

really liked your reaction vid, will be watching more of your work!

I also love the red trees that you marveled at in Ohio. In the autumn, the leaves of maple trees turn red before they fall off the trees. Entire hillsides of them are visible in many places in New England and the Midwest. Thousands of Americans travel to look at the trees every autumn. I heard that Vermont residents call these tourists "leaf peepers."

There are 4 towns in Central Massachusetts that were bought out by the state, dismantled and flooded as a reservoir for Boston during the 1930s. It's called the Quabbin definitely worth checking out through research , or even better in person

Bash Bish Falls is wonderful but a bit of a chore to get to. If you enter from the New York side you have a decent walk overland through woods and rocky terrain and come out at the top of the falls. Enter from Connecticut and you have a decent walk up a rising path alongside the bolder-lined stream bed to rock basins that people sneak in to swim sometimes (the water is coooold 🥶) and you end up at the pool at the base of the fall. There is a path that connects to the top of the falls. Either entry's walk is a real workout but worth the effort. My late wife & I used to drive in from Springfield (Massachusetts) a couple or three times a summer and brought our 3 dogs...they used to love to swim and splash around in the stream at the low Connecticut entry. The water was pretty shallow and not real rapid. With that and the walk up to the falls and back, all 3 were normally laying on each other and snoring in the back seat on the ride home. As I recall...the Connecticut portion is the Taconic State Forest, and the Massachusetts part (where Bash Bish actually is) is the Mount Washington State Forest. Highly recommended.

You made many kind remarks about the “niceness” of Americans being genuine. My friend, you have that very gift with yourself. Good job!

If i am not mistaken, I very well could be. The citys we have underwater are due to dams being bult and flooding the city. Im sure some of them have to do with dams failing too.

Great video brah! I c ur channel growing and im here 4 tha ride!

Chris, for years, the most likely choice for #51 has been Puerto Rico. But, time will tell. He's right in saying that Kodiak Island is an island, but in reality it's more than that--the main island of many forming a huge archapelago to the SW of Anchorage. Monument Valley is on the Navajo Reservation in the narrow spillover area from Arizona into Utah. Another spillover is to the east in New Mexico. I've visited, and it's breathtaking. He mispronounced Waimea Canyon as wye-uh-ME-uh; it's actually wye-MAY-uh. I visited around 2000, and it's beautiful, as is the entire state. The Illinois offering is in my city, and is second in the country to the Japanese Garden in Seattle. In the Iowa offering (Maquoketa), he switched the 'Q' and the 'T'; it's McCOKE-et-uh, rather than McCOAT-eh-cuh. Louisiana, being a state settled by French speakers evicted from Canada who twisted up the original French pronunciations, there are more than enough unanticipated pronunciations found in the state, this one being Vacherie = VASH-er-ee (town; Cajun French for ‘cow place’’, i.e., ‘ranch'). Michigan is the only state made up of 2 peninsulas. Only the lower one got shaded red on the map. North of the dark blue state (Wisconsin) to the west is the Upper Peninsula. He also said the sand hill is in Scenic Bear Dunes; it's Sleeping Bear Dunes. Tishomingo State Park, though it sounds Japanese, is actually named after a local Chickasaw (CHICK-uh-saw) Indian chief' who lived from 1758 to 1837 in Mississippi. Nebraska's Chimney Rock was used by settlers heading west on the Oregon Trail in the 1800s to verify they were still heading in the right direction. I visited back in 2019. The red and white lines in the Nevada section are natural, not built, as is everything in this video. The colorful trees are what results in the fall/autumn when the leaves change color before falling off the trees. Oregon's offering, Crater Lake, is a national park. What you said doesn't look healthy is Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone N.P., and the colors are produced by heat tolerant microbes in the boiling water, and is amazingly beautiful. I saw it in 2020.

Most of the stranger names are Native American!❤

Tishomingo is Choctaw. Rule of thumb in America, it if sounds funny it's probably tribal, then Spanish, then French. Puerto Rico is the most likely next state if there was going to be one. It's a US territory. However, they have always voted to remain a territory instead of becoming a state or becoming their own country until recent decades. However, Congress has to approve it which they will never do. The island is so corrupt and poorly run they are almost 100 billion in debt. That's not from hurricanes. The feds take tax money and pay for most of that. It's from socialist programs and misspending which they have no way to pay for. Also, the island would vote democratic and the republicans will never approve it. If it was likely to vote republican the democrats would never approve it. It's so bad there literally half the population lives on the mainland. They are the only territory that has full citizenship and can just up and move anytime also. Some people say the next state would be Washington DC however, that not legal. The district was carved out of a couple of states. Legally the land has to go back to those states if it isn't a district. The trees are mostly green spring and summer. In the fall the leaves on some trees turn red, orange, and yellow as they die for the winter. In spring the leaves come out green again. Pine and cedar trees are green all year and don't lose their leaves for the winter. If it stays a color other than green all year it's probably from another country.

Hi Chris! Just found your channel. We do have a lot of beautiful places here ( we have some ugly ones too 😂 ) but your video is a reminder to me not to take it for granted. I would love to visit Germany as there are lots of gorgeous places there too. If you ever have a chance to come here - and if you can , visit the southwest ( the desert landscapes are incredible and you can actually see the Milky Way in the night sky - so many stars. One other tip, turquoise sounds like the word " noise " at the end.

The answer is yes, and in 2016 and 2017 the United States nearly grew to 52 states in the span of two years as both Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico both held referendum votes to decide whether the populations wanted to be considered sovereign States. Both votes passed with a majority in both territories and the decision moved on to the U.S. Congress who by the authority of the Constitution is granted the power to admit states that follow three criteria for obtaining statehood in the Union. 1. The prospective state and it's people must show a desire to live under and support a democratic form of government such as that of the United States Constitutional system. 2. The prospective state must show that the majority of it's electorate desires statehood. 3. The prospective state must be able to support a local government and it's share of the Federal Government. In 2016 The Democratic lead House of Representatives passed a bill to make D.C. a sovereign state. The Republican lead Senate and the Republican President had different ideas about admitting a traditionally Democratic leaning territory to statehood, and vowed to stop it. So Washington D.C.'s chances died in the Senate. Puerto Rico got it's chance in 2017 when the Democratic lead House passed the Island's bill for statehood. However because the Senate was at the time still overseen by the Republican Party who knew that admittance of the traditionally Democratic leaning territory would be the same as admitting D.C. into full statehood it didn't want to increase their odds of loosing power by adding new Electoral wins to their opponents side; it again let the bill die in their chamber. Thus, with these two bills they had forever proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that, Republicans will do anything to thwart the will of the people to maintain power.

@toddjackson3136

Ooooo, so close to being actual facts. Just had to put that political spin on it didn't you. The truth is that whenever a territory applies for statehood, the controlling political party at the time seeks to maintain its power base. In history, the democrats have also opposed conservative leaning territories becoming states. Thus showing that ALL governing bodies will stand in the way of the will of a people if they don't think the same way that they do.

@lunarscribe8995 Here are some facts. Prior to the Civil War, both sides fought over which territories should be allowed to become states because neither side wanted to be "disadvantaged" so after bitter contests, it was decided that in order to prevent civil war for each free state allowed a slave state would also be allowed. It's called the Compromise of 1850. It was a temporary fix that didn't last as both sides started trying to add more of their territory than the other within a few years of the compromise. It's the nature of all governing bodies to attempt to consolidate power for further control. That's why the founders wanted a small federal government.

Great video!!! American football video reactions seem to do well. Here comes the boom is the best one.

California: Yosemite National Park New Mexico: Valles Caldera National Preserve Utah: Bonneville Salt Flats Oregon: 1000% agree that Crater Lake is one of the most stunning places you’ll ever see

The flooded towns, . . . It is sort of true. When electricity became a thing, hydroelectric plants needed to be built, . . . rivers had to be called and some homes, villages and towns had to be relocated, or just abandoned. Since it has been about a century, there isn't much left. You might find some foundations. The structures were fairly well salvaged before the area was flooded. We used to get tons of driftwood from the submerged trees. Now we rarely see any. I am from an area that had numerous dams and reservoirs built in the early 1900's.

The flooded towns do exist! There were several in Tennessee from the creation of the TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority) which was the creation of strategic dams along the riverways to prevent flooding in major cities and to provide Hydroelectricity at a low cost to thousands. People were made to vacate smaller towns for the dams to be built and the towns were flooded. A lot of people got little to no compensation, and it's something that gets skipped over a bit in history class. I am from Tennessee, and The Great Smoky Mountains are supposed to be the oldest mountains on earth! They have the most diverse variety of species of Salamanders in the world, and they look beautiful year-round. They get their name from those foggy mornings where they are so surrounded by clouds that they look mysterious and far away. Truly my favorite place ever!

As a lifelong Alaskan I am happy the vid mentioned Kodiak! I recommend first-time visitors go mid June to early July for all the spectacular wildflowers, fish, and the best chance for sunshine. Not to mention the sweet fresh untainted ocean air.

Yellowstone is noted for grossers , mountains and the wildlife….❤it is spectacular! Stay at the Roosevelt. Shins and drive to Lamar valley and see the bison- So many beautiful places here in The USA👍😊

Yes, there are some towns that now are completely under water. Many dams have been constructed to help even out rivers that would frequently do a lot of damage due to floods. Reservoirs tame the wildest rivers and lessen flooding. As a side effect, these reservoirs have been instrumental for housing turbines that generate electrical power on the grid. I live in Colorado, which has many beautiful places. We may not have the highest mountain peaks, but we do have 58 14ers, which are mountain peaks of 14,000 feet (4267 meters) or higher. Though Colorado is beautiful, I would say that Utah, home of "The Big 5" National Parks. (Arches, Canyonlands, Bryce Canyon, Zion and Capital Reef) is my favorite state, and Bryce Canyon is my favorite National Park.

Great videos!!

Thank you for reacting to our beautiful country. I eventually want to visit all the National Parks. I’ve only been to a few. I’ve lived in several different states. States I’ve been to or lived in are California, Nevada, South Carolina, Arizona, Louisiana, New Mexico, Florida, Washington (the state)Utah, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi and now I live in Texas. The furthest I’ve ever driven was from Florida to Southern California. First National Park I ever went to was Zion. I’ve been to Sequoia twice, The Grand Canyon and Yosemite. I used to live right next to Joshua Tree National Park in Southern California

Great reaction video. I subbed. The crazy thing is, most people would argue that there are prettier places in their states than the one's listed. They did a great job with this video and I know they had to choose only one from each state, so for that i applaud. I'm from Arkansas, and while I love Mt. Magazine, the Buffalo National River and surrounding Ozark Mountains are "arguably" more beautiful. I also have property on Kauai, and I think the Napali coast is the prettiest place on the islands. The point is, you should visit. you will see why Americans tend to travel within the country more than abroad.

Very surprised the video didn't include Starved Rock State Park for Illinois! Illinois is known for being very flat, but Starved Rock has 18 canyons that were formed by glaciers, and also has waterfalls and caves! The area is hugely significant in Native American history (Native Americans have been in the area since 8,000 years ago!), and the trees are very vibrantly red and yellow in the autumn. It's also considered an official National Historic Landmark :)

Remember Chris, the U.S. is bigger than you think, especially if you drive. If you do drive it, check out the small communities and their little festivals and history along the way. I've ridden my motorcycle through all 50 states, and I'd say Yellowstone National Park, and Wyoming, is my favorite place to explore. Since you would be close, go over Bear Tooth Pass into Montana, just don't be scared. 😉 That would be a good bucket list addition for you, but one of the most amazing drives in the U.S. has to be The Road to Hana. It's a 64 mile stretch of road that starts in Kahului and ends at Kīpahulu. Along this road, there are 620 curves, 59 bridges, 46 of which are one lane. Try to go there off season. Really, any of the popular places might workout better just before, or just after, the tourist season, which is before May 31, to after September 1.

It's so good to watch your reactions to these. I'm an over the road truck driver, so I've seen more of America than most people get to, and many of these even I haven't gotten to see. Europeans often criticize Americans for not travelling outside the US, but international travel gets very expensive, and when the US is as large as it is, with so many wonderful things to see, you could spend a lifetime travelling the country and still not see everything. Travelling through the states is a lot like travelling to different countries at times. People are different, accents are different, cuisine is different, culture is different. I've seen more than most have, and still haven't even scratched the surface.

Yellowstone is a supervolcano! An older one is in the eastern Tennessee valley. North America's features were formed with collisions of techtonic plates, first from the east then from the west, hundreds of millions of years ago. Glad it is prettier now. H/T Chris.

I have been blessed to have visited several of these places. My favorite is in Utah, Zion National Park. It is absolutely one of the most beautiful places. So majestic. I have visited 32 of the 50 states but not all of the accompanying sites mentioned here.

The "unhealthy" looking lake in Yellowstone Park is a Hot spring. The park is full of them it's very cool. I'm from Michigan we have more shoreline than any other state. We also boast the most lighthouses in the U.S. My first trip this summer is to Lake Michigan. We have a campsite, on top of a wooded dune overlooking the beach, reserved. Can't wait. Be sure to put Lake Michigan, South Haven, Ludington or Traverse City on your Bucket list. All charming towns full of beautiful views. The state is truly so beautiful I've never lived anywhere else in spite of having the opportunity to do so. The people are very friendly and we take pride in the cleanliness of our state.

Rocks come in all shapes and colors red rocks in Colorado, amazing rock formations in Utah, the deserts of New Mexico has those flat top masas . NY has a lot of waterfalls, Niagra is amazing ( best seen from the Canadian side) a picture does not do it justice. My town is full of steep gorges and waterfalls, Taughannock Falls is very pretty. They use to shoot the old silent Tarzan movies here in the Finger Lakes of NY * Highly recommend Niagra Falls, Yellowstone Park (any of the big parks), Hawaii is gorgeous, San Diago Zoo, Im not a hot weather/dessert fan but the ancient Anasazi ruins and petroglyphs I highly recommend Near the Grand Canyon (which I did not get to see ).And Any part of the Rocky Mts. * Lobster in Maine during the summer, all food in Louisiana in the cooler months, North East in the fall Oct 13th is peak leaf color

During Autumn, many trees experience changing colors to their leaves. In some parts of the US, certain types of trees can turn red, yellow and browns. After a few weeks, they fall to the ground.

Of the ones on this list, I've been to Waimea Canyon, Cadillac Mountain, Split Rock Lighthouse, Badlands, the Smoky Mountains, Shenandoah, the Apostle Islands, and Yellowstone. Some suggestions that aren't on the list: - In Arizona, the Grand Canyon is incredible; it's hard to imagine the sheer size of it until you're up close. It's over 1800 m deep, and nearly 30 km across at its widest point. - Also in Arizona, Antelope Canyon is another good pick, at the extreme opposite end of the scale for size; there were places where I could touch both walls with my elbows, and because it's so narrow and twisted the lighting in there changes throughout the day. Tours run three times a day, and the guide said there are people who do all three because it looks so different in the morning compared to the late afternoon. - Most of Lake Superior's North Shore in Minnesota is gorgeous; Split Rock is neat but I think I would put Temperance River State Park above it. Also, the Boundary Waters Canoe Area is some of the most isolated wilderness in the country. - The Blue Ridge Parkway through Virginia and North Carolina will take you through some really beautiful areas, especially in autumn when the leaves are turning different colors. Price Lake in North Carolina is probably my favorite spot along the Parkway, but there are dozens to choose from. - You really can't go wrong with any of the five national parks in Utah. Bryce Canyon, Arches, and Canyonlands are all phenomenal; Capitol Reef is less well known than the other four (and tougher to get to), but it's still pretty interesting.

New Hampshire resident but grew up in Iowa with family in Washington State. Also spent 11+ years in Germany. In the fall, our sugar maple trees turn reds and oranges before falling. Fall in New England is pretty amazing. This video shows just a few of the great places to visit. The U.S. is such a large country, there are huge varieties from coast to coast. It is hard to understand how large the U.S. is unless you try to drive from coast to coast.

It is lots of fun to watch you as you "explore" the parks in America. There are so many to enjoy - we are truly fortunate. If I can make a comment that Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Michigan is completely breathtaking as well. I've also been to the Standing Rock Lighthouse in Minnesota and Wisconsin has quite a few beautiful places as well.

I love your enthusiasm on the United States. It is a beautiful place. I hope you get to visit over here and I hope the people here will treat you with the utmost respect you deserve. May God Bless you and keep you safe and healthy. Can’t wait for more videos.

*Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore* has some astounding cliff faces with beautifully colored rock faces, the deep turquoise waters of Lake Superior and trees that grow sideways out of steep inclines, and so much more -- located on the north shore of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. It's a rugged area where Ernest Hemingway spent his summers as a child and learned to be rugged and strong himself. This should tell you how wild the land actually is. Autumn comes early but the sea of trees has every color of the rainbow. Just as beautiful in winter with ice caves and amazing ice formations both on the water and throughout the woods. Everything natural can be compared to modern architecture. In the heart of winter you'll often view the Aurora Borealis. Year round there are more stars than you could ever imagine. If you go in springtime you can see the waterfalls bursting with snow melt but be prepared to fight the mud. Summers are so intensely green (and blue) that you'll feel like someone slipped you something. The Upper Peninsula is constantly exploding with color in all seasons except late autumn (between the times of leaves and snow) and early spring (the mud season). But only sometimes, depending on the weather. Then, there is all the wildlife: as small as chipmunks and as large as moose, active in all seasons. It is said there are more black bears than people in the Upper Peninsula but luckily, no grizzlies. Just follow the rules and you'll be fine. There are so many types of birds and they never allow anything to be silent...but in the prettiest way. While it's incredibly far north and the climate reflects that, there is a lushness to the land not unlike a jungle. Lake Superior is the most pristine of the Great Lakes, which are casually referred to as the Inland Seas, though the water is fresh, not salt. Fishing is year round. If you want to go boating, June is the best (safest) month. If there's a water sport you're into chances are the Great Lakes will accommodate you. Except for surfing. I think. I could be wrong. And if there's an ice or snow sport you're into they've got it. From skiing, ice skating, ice fishing, snowmobiling, dog sledding (though I don't know how I feel about that) and a billion other adventures. Or if the weather is crap there are the casinos but I've never been so you'll have to look that up on your own. Too rich for my blood. Honestly don't go in the height of summer (July? Or possibly August?) because the black flies are nothing short of alarming. Mosquitoes can be prehistoric; I now live in Florida and the mosquitoes here have got nothing on the UP's mosquitoes. Our mosquitoes may carry things like malaria but Michigan's have been known to carry off small children. Bring your warm clothes no matter the season -- but more as a just-in-case in summer. Even if it's not your cup of tea you should check out Pictured Rocks online. There are so many photos to get lost in.
