when i went to Wyoming a couple years ago, we went and saw the Devil’s Tower after going to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. Devil’s Tower is a huge mountain of hexagon shaped rocks that sticks straight into the air and looks really cool
Wyoming borders colorado(where I’m currently at) you can fly into Denver maybe spend some time in Rocky Mountain National park or go up pikes peak outside colorado for a few days then head north to Yellowstone for a week or so. Yellowstone National Park is mostly in Wyoming but is also in montana and idaho
Wyoming is the least populated state so there isn't a lot to do except sightseeing. My husband's parents lived there and we enjoyed just hiking in the mountains.
There are lots of rodeos in Wyoming. Most cities & towns have a sort of fesival or farm fair or carnival in the summer. Check out the area you want to visit & see what things are going on. A carnival in middle America usually has some fun rides & arcade games, lots of delicious food & ppl compete against each other in food, animal & handmade crafts. Farm/ranch equipment is displayed & there is usually a parade of some sort. There are clasdic car clubs that will show off & there are often 'motorcycle rides' that you will see on the Highways on the weekends or on major holidays. Oh, and there are usually great bands at these fairs, too. I still offer to host you absolute legends if you should ever want to visit Hawaii Island.❤
Wherever you choose to go in the USA, we'd be happy to welcome you. The USA loves welcoming happy, genuine people. The fact that you honor our military touches our hearts deeply. You two are very special people who shine with love and light in heartbreaking times. Seeing you smile brought happiness to me. For that I thank you. God bless you both.
Agreed. Such horrendous times with young people not having the right attitudes and yet there are people like you guys that are inspirational and push positive.
Keep in mind, there are grumpy people no matter where you go, so don't be too surprised if you happen to run into one here in the states. It does happen, sadly.
How true your words are! America and Americans want to share this country with awesome people on a learning curve! There’s so much in this country, and only uncaring and uneducated (illegal) occupation people have failed to acknowledge or view it. The government’s immediate problem is a totally compromised president and leadership bank, along with a deep volume of compromised bureau workers, career workers biased and willing to practice their bias. Trump was the beginning, DeSantis will be the future after DJT works the remaining four years of his duty.
Any list that doesn't have Yosemite as one of the U.S.'s most beuatiful places is an odd list because it's one of the most stunning places you'll ever see.
Can't believe the list didn't include Yosemite, Redwood Forest, Niagara Falls, Pacific Coast Highway, Arches National Park, and many other exceedingly beautiful places.
They would have to make a "The Ten Thousand Most Beautiful Places in America". I have been to enough places to know you can find great and unique beauty almost anywhere you go.
I am blessed to live in the largest park in the continental United States. It's a state park in upstate New York state. It's called the Adirondack Park and it encompasses 6.1 million acres. It contains 102 towns and villages, it contains over 10,000 lakes and ponds and over 30,000 miles of rivers and streams.
Facts I didn't know and lived in nearby Rochester most of my life. This is a very beautiful state , unfortunately run by poor politicians and it makes it hard to live in. Much like California
Yes, our liberal state government and high taxes are ruining the state. My oldest son moved to Florida and he loves it there and my youngest son just moved to Tennessee. Better paying jobs and in both States no state income tax.
There is no way to truly describe how deeply blue the ocean around Hawaii is; it’s almost hypnotic! On the other side of the US you have the Emerald Coast in Florida - over 100 miles of sugar sand beaches unlike any other anywhere else!
The beaches on the Gulf Coast, North Florida have sand that is white as snow, much cleaner and better than Miami, Daytona, and Clearwater's fake dredged beach.
@@gregpeterman1102 yes, the panhandle of Florida is the Emerald Coast - you can actually include the little tract of land in Alabama (Gulf Shores & Mobile) is where the sugar sand starts…
You could fly into Chicago and rent a car. Driving to Wyoming you could see Mt. Rushmore and the Badlands along the way. Then enjoy the small towns you encounter during the long drive to Yellowstone. Wyoming has old west style towns and former mining towns with a lot of historical character.
Yellowstone is definitely the park to visit. I've lived in Wyoming all my life and visit there often and still haven't seen everything. I'm currently planning a multiple day float trip fly fishing through Yellowstone canyon. Can't wait.
Fly to Salt Lake City. Then take a smaller plane to Jackson, Wyoming and you are right next to Yellowstone. Plan on at least two days to drive around the park. North-east of the park is Cody, Wyoming that is also worth a visit. I live in Eastern Idaho so I have been to Yellowstone at least a hundred times. You will not be disappointed.
For me, Yellowstone, Bryce Canyon, Mesa Verde, Grand Canyon, Grand Tetons, and Canyonlands are the top places I've been. Also a tip, you could try to do something like the trip I did with my parents where we flew into Denver CO, rented a car and drove up to Yellowstone, then down through various parks to the Grand Canyon before flying out of Denver again. The whole thing took two weeks, and it was ALOT of driving in what is essentially a big circle, but it was also the best trip I've ever been on.
all good, however, I can't see how anyone leaves Yosemite off any/every list off national parks. Yosemite should make the WORLD LIST as their is absolutely no place on Earth like Yosemite.
@@RobertMJohnson it's off mine because it's the one major park in that region that I haven't been too. On both of the trips I went on it was too far off the "route" to see it. However the next time I head to the Rockies I'm making sure I see it.
@@ventusbruma1039 Yes, if you do Yosemite, you want to couple it with the Pacific Coast, San Francisco, Redwoods, Lake Tahoe. nota bene: Yosemite is in the Sierra Nevada mountains, not the Rockies.
You could spend a month in any location in the US & be amazed at the land, ppl, food. I did visit England briefly in 1998 & thought it was stunning. It was spring & everything was so green & lush. I loved how peaceful & undeveloped the countrside was. The range of architecture & rich history was mind blowing. Both mine & my husband's families have English roots. I'd love to visit again someday. London was awesome & very easy to navigate. The ppl were friendly. Being an Arthur Conan Doyle nerd I had to have a Shepherd's Pie at 221 Baker Steet. I also visited Leeds Castle. I really want to go to Stonehenge.
@@AnnieAnnieBuckwheatCakes I didn't know how Walter Sickert was, but after reading about him and looking at his paintings, I've concluded that yes.. it was totally him
Yosemite is crazy beautiful. There are several other national parks nearby that are spectacular which include the General Sherman Tree, the world's largest tree by volume. A trip up the Pacific Coast Highway would be an amazing couple's trip. Stops at Hearst Castle, Big Sur, 17 mile drive, Golden Gate Bridge, and Muir Woods are a must.
Michigan (the mitten) and the U.P are a must-visit. Come see "The Falls", visit the Whitefish Point museum, bring a handkerchief, for the tears. Climb the lighthouse, eat the Pasties!!! Cross the bridge at Mackinaw, Visit Mackinaw Island, eat some fudge. SO many things to do and see!
Easy to do when you have 4 million square miles (10 million square kilometers) of it and it's mostly just empty space not being used for anything other than as a home for the animals that live there.
Our last president sold 10.6 million acres of public lands (including Bears Ears National Monument). Over half of that land (equivalent to the size of New Jersey) went to oil and gas developers, meaning those lands will now be destroyed and polluted. The lands he offered for sale totaled 106 million acres.
@@sophiedash4026 it’s a catch22 huh. It’s not a bad thing to be self preserving. People want things both ways. How about we just start limiting the amount of children people can have and how many people we allow into the country using those precious resources. Then we can save more land and resources. Let’s do some compromises to help both sides.
I live about 2 hours from the Sand Dunes in Colorado and it is absolutely worth the visit. The video also doesn't do justice to just how beautiful the surrounding area is.
My favorite place in the world is Grand Lake Colorado. The town itself is small and not over priced, right next Rocky Mountain national park, has good fishing/hunting and hiking access and friendly locals. I definitely recommend going there
@@mycroft16 yup. My grandparents owned a ranch in the middle of the San Juan valley surrounded by the mountains. The whole area is absolutely stunning.
Hubby and I took a helicopter tour from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon. I cried, it was so beautiful! Champaign brunch down in the canyon topped the adventure off.
Hiking in Zion National Park (reference to the first one, Angel's Landing) is an awe inspiring experience. If you like to hike and be completely alone, this is where you want to go.
@@troyottosen8722 I've, personally, hiked into the canyon a few times, stayed for 4 or 5 days and never saw a soul, except on the hill down and back up. Up on the short hikes on the hill there are plenty of people, but not many campers or overnighters that hike in and out.
@@troyottosen8722 um guys grand canyon is huge. Maybe where the person was it wasn't crowded. You can see it from las Vegas as a day trip to a Indian reserve. No one is there not even a fence to stop you. You could drive by it. Just a guy a standing in the road
This comment should be pinned at the top. That would be amazing to see. Every state I've been in (most of them) have something spectacular about them Arkansas is full of hidden gems. A small state but vasily different from top to bottom side to side. I'm not from there but I love a good road trip.
Yellowstone is beautiful. We went in the winter and toured it by snowmobile. Absolutely beautiful winter wonderland. Glacier NP is our vacation for 2022.
2 places they left out are the Grand Canyon (which is one mile deep) and the Redwood forest, in California, where you can drive through massive ancient trees!
I highly recommend visiting Utah! There are the "Mighty 5" National Parks. Zion, Bryce, Canyonlands, Arches, Capitol Reef. You can travel the mighty 5 and get a really true "American West" experience ! Absolutely beautiful!
I second this. UT has one of the more diverse landscapes as well... from high alpine tundra and mountain peaks to a near carbon copy of Horseshoe Bend (they snuck a picture in of Dead Horse Point in this video actually) and Zion's etc. Yellowstone is unmatched though. I have no idea how it wasn't number 1. Every bend in the road there you discover some new incredible sight. It felt otherworldly watching thunderstorms roll over the park while standing in front of geysers and mud pots bubbling away.
The Napali Coast is easily the most stunning and beautiful place I've ever seen. So far beyond the next most beautiful (Lake Tahoe) that I haven't even the words to explain the difference. I felt like I was breathless the entire time I was there because it was so overwhelming. I still get a swoop of excitement in my stomach when I think back on it.
Brennan Bourne 1 second ago I'm from Montana and you should DEFINITELY come to Yellowstone and Glacier National Park! You could visit both, as West Yellowstone is in the southern most part of MT while Glacier is near the Canadian border. I would recommend flying into Billings or Bozeman and renting a car. I'd also recommend checking out Red Lodge, Big Sky, and Missoula. My wife and I are in Billings (the largest city) and would be more than happy to meet up or answer any questions you may have! :)
From personal experience, I can assure you the night sky when observed from Glacier National Park is absolutely stunning. I camped in the mountains there over a decade ago and one of my favorite parts was staring in awe at the number of stars that were visible.
Zion National Park is a must visit for foreigners. It's essential Western motif. Basically whatever you envision the American Southwest to look like in classic Western movies, it's all there in Zion National Park. I think that the Johnny Depp "Lone Ranger" film was filmed around there. Bryce Canyon National Park is also nearby and is like an Alien Planet.
I visited Carlsbad Caverns in 1985 as an 11 year old. Awesome place. Very cool labyrinth of walkways to take to tour the cave system. To get to the Big Room, you can take an elevator straight down to it, or you can walk down to it through winding paths in narrower areas of the cave. But the whole thing is very well lit and maintained. What we did was to buy one of those tourist books that showed some of the most interesting formations in the cave beforehand and then whe we took the tour, it was fun referencing back to the images in the book whenever we'd come across the real formations.
This is kind of a wonky list, IMHO. These are AMONG the most beautiful places in the country. But there are literally hundreds of other that could have (and should have) made the list. The Grand Canyon, Crater Lake, Monument Valley, Yosemite, Joshua Tree, the Goat Rocks Wilderness in the Cascades, the White Mountains in New Hampshire, etc.
Me and my family went on a nice trip I'd recommend to you guys - we flew into Las Vegas and rented a car and immediately drove off to do a kind of triangle trip starting at Zion then to Bryce Canyon, and then to the Grand Canyon! - was amazing and everyone had a good time - naturally we finished things off with 2 days in Vegas and flew home from there! -But I'd recommend that trip to anyone; was a great vacation with a little bit of everything
Glacier is amazing. My cousin got married in the park so we all stayed at a lodge right outside the park, a cute log cabin, and spent the weekend hiking around the park. It was amazing.
I've done a cross Country road trip from NYC to CA. (Missing WAY too many places) and it still continues to blow my mind how many completely different terrains, landscapes, and cultures we have in this one amazing Country.
At 9:30 about the Multnomah falls. I grew up in Portland in the 80s and 90s I ve been to them many times. They are as beautiful and more as what your thinking. Especially in the winter. Well worth seeing on your walk about in America.
It would be great if you, as a couple, would film a few areas of attraction near you or just places you find special, beautiful, interesting or simply relaxing. If would be fun to watch and could make for a nice date day for your lady.
I'm a Colorado native and I love the sand dunes it is actually a cool place and it's very close to the Royal gorge which is a really cool place as well if you ever get an opportunity to come to Colorado you should definitely visit those places also hanging lake the hot springs all the different Rock canyons Colorado is actually a very beautiful state
I realize I’m late on some of these videos, but I found y’all’s channel yesterday and I’ve pretty much been watching ever since. Great content! You guys are awesome!
I live in Utah and you can take international flights into Salt Lake City. Utah has a ton of national parks, including Zion national park, Arches National park, and Bryce Canyon national park. We border Wyoming, Idaho, and Colorado and we’re only a day drive to Yellowstone. If you want to visit Wyoming, I’d recommend starting in Utah, driving up through Idaho (maybe stopping at the hot springs there), heading to Jackson Wyoming, visiting Grand Teton National Park, then driving up to Yellowstone. It’s such a beautiful road trip full of national forests, wildlife, and snow capped mountains. ^_^
I spent 3 weeks in Yellowstone as a kid through a program called “People To People”. It’s like an ambassador program for gifted kids and it was the best trip I’ve ever been on in my life next to Italy. It has some of the most raw beauty I’ve ever seen and I travel ALOT. and there’s always stuff to do. Hiking, white water rafting down the Colorado river, fly fishing.. it really is unreal. I went to the Montana portion but also took day trips to the Idaho portion a few tomes
These best part of this video, is that the best parts aren't in it. Obviously highlights of the big boys are here, but thousands of different places could easily take the places of thes listed in their own rite.
The great sand dunes are impressive and fun because you can sled down the dunes, but it is a several hours drive from the nearest sizable airport. My son and I drove out there and camped at a nearby state park for the night.
All these beautiful places and the most visited national park, The Great Smoky Mountains in E. Tennessee, NC Kentucky W. Virginia and GA is amazingly beautiful. Especially during the the fall season when the leaves turn multiple different colors. Cades Cove in itself is amazing
@@angelnelson2012 shoot a message I can tell you the best ones. There’s 20-30 cabin rental places, well more but 5-6 of them are remote yet 10-15 mins from the Pigeon forge and Gatlinburg strip
10:16 It is in Yellowstone and some of Yellowstone looks just like that. Multicolored springs & mud pots. For my money, go 40 miles south to Grand Teton National Park for beauty. But Yellowstone is a stunning geophysical display. 15:52 Wyoming is a sparsely populated state. If you want to see the 'West' of Hollywood that is one place to go. Just south of Yellowstone & Grand Teton is Jackson Hole. One of my favorite ski resorts. Winters are brutal there so don't go in winter. There are exceptions to this & things to do in winter. Wyoming is not a 'party central' place to be. There are many sites to see (with long distances between each) & you might consider Wyoming or Montana for a 'dude ranch' experience. I have spent time in Wyoming & much of it is like a high plains desert. Maybe Rocky Mountain National park (N Colorado), Grand Teton/Yellowstone (NW Wyoming), and Glacier National park (N Montana) for a two week tour. Keep in mind each of these is about 400-500 miles apart. A lot of that is high altitude also. Just take it easy on the exertion.
Grand Teton/Yellostone is in the Northwest (NW) Wyoming, not the Northeast (NE). If you are driving, one out-of-the-way place to visit is the Medicine Wheel in the north Big Horn Mountains (north central Wyoming). A structure used by ancient natives for seasonal time keeping, similar to Stonehenge.
Some of the images used for Horseshoe Bend are actually Dead Horse Point State Park just outside Moab, Utah. They are the images with the flat plateau on the point. Moab is a good location to stay and do day trips out into the beautiful desert areas.
Just wondering. I keep hearing Millie talking about getting images on canvas. Is Millie an artist? If you enjoy paintings of landscapes you should check out an American institution. His name was Bob Ross. He had a TV show for many years, and did a painting tutorial each show. He had very different methods. Became almost a folk hero. Check out an episode of The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross. It will at the very least be something different for you.
I have taken the boat trip from Key West out to Dry Tortugas National Park. It is a great day trip, especially if you like a bit of history as well. Also, you can go snorkeling in the area to look at the sea life.
America's national parks are beautiful. But the state parks in every state are beautiful too. America's state parks are our hidden gems that most tourists don't know about. Awesome Video!
I've been to all of these places... absolutely worth the trip. Wyoming is a great place... beautiful scenery. If you go there...you should research the region. I believe there's a few Ghost Towns from our Wild West days.
Drove through Wyoming about 30+ years ago. Stopped for lunch in a small town called Chugwater. It was so quiet even the dog in the street looked at us weird because we were talking.
Having spent much of my life in Montana I have been to Yellowstone literally close to 100 times and to Glacier 5 times. I can tell you that they are both actually prettier than the pictures! Yellowstone is huge. You can fly to Bozeman, Montana 90 miles away & then get a tour to Yellowstone. You MUST book around a year in advance. It can be very busy. Both parks are mostly closed in the Winter due to heavy snow & very cold temperatures. You can go to Yellowstone in the winter by snow coach & it is a different world altogether.
Would you say going by snow coach is better? I've always wanted to go. It also looks very busy in the summertime, I'd like to go when there are fewer people around
@@landminehopscotch3617 It really depends on you & your comfort with the cold. The park is empty in the winter, except for snow coaches, snow mobiles & cross country skiiers so you really can see things! But it can be very cold and the snow can cover a few things. They do have snow coach tours & a winter lodge close to Old Faithful. Bring heavy coats, boots, mittens, hats, face gaiters & long underwear. But it is a great way to see the park! And winter can have sunny days, even in the cold.
You can absolutely fly into Wyoming. Jackson is kind of the "posh" town in Wyoming and it is basically in Yellowstone. You can also enter from Montana from Billings, Bozeman, or Helena. Probably more people and a little more budget friendly than Jackson.
Where you go depends on what you want to do. Do you want to hike on wilderness trails? Scuba dive? Bird watch? Ski? Or are you content to view things from the comfort of your car and share the more public areas of a park with a lot of other people on easily accessible trails? In addition to seeing natural wonders, do you also want to check out some of the city pleasures -- museums, architecture, varied cultures, great food? BTW, I'm not a big fan of this list. Nice places but I can name dozens I think are more beautiful.
Hi Beesley & Milliie, I know you already looked at the comments so I hope you see this. I agree with another comment...fly into billings Montana or Denver. You will get best air fare into these. I have done both....but my favorite was driving from Denver. 1st .. if you've never seen MOUNTAINS irl from Denver you can just make out the foothills driving north they come into view....it was Awesome 2. most the main roads are like 80 mph or greater so since Jersey is max 40....strap in. 3. Allow plenty of mouth hanging open views, overlooks and hikes. Fun fact for Beesley you don't have to hide in your car as long you don't hike too deep plus they put up. 🐻 bear warning signs whenever they have been reported.
I totally agree. I was shocked to see some things left out that are, in my opinion, better than a few of the things on this list. One of my favorite places is Alaska. The rainforests are breathtaking. Easy or tough hikes for spectacular views in 65-70 degrees in the summer. Wildlife everywhere. “British Couple” have some gorgeous spots around them too. The Earth is a special place 🥰
I grew up in Colorado; every year, my science teacher would take us on a field trip down to the "Dunes" (it was about a four- or five-hour drive from where I grew up in south-western Colorado). The creek which runs by the Dunes pulsates, like a heartbeat; every twenty or thirty seconds or so, a larger pulse of water would come downstream. I never did find out what caused it.
I visited once back when i was a teenager. at first i just thought of dunes as just.... sand and dunes... nothing impressive. then when the dunes came into view i couldn't believe the size of them. they were incredible. it was truly one of the best experiences i've had. they are definitely worth a visit. absolutely incredible.
I literally live 4 hours drive away from Yellowstone. And if you get the chance, you definitely need to see it. You can spend an entire week on just that park alone. On top of that, there are other natural wonders, that video just scratches the surface. You could easily just catch a connecting flight to somewhere like Salt Lake City if you can't make it in one flight. Once there you could get a rental car to Yellowstone. Once near Yellowstone you could rent an RV, rent a campsite in the park and drive to places, if you're on a budget you could probably rent a moving van and sleep in that
There are so many gorgeous sights, landscapes, and architectural wonders to see in the US it woyld take a lifetime to explore. The US is huge compared to UK. Yellowstone is a must see though, just don't go feeding the wildlife.
Proud to say I've been to half these places (Multnomah Falls, Horseshoe Bend, the Sand Dunes, Angel's Landing, and the spring in Yellowstone) The United States really is the most beautiful country in the world, simply because there's so much variety. I believe we are the only country to contain every biome in the world
What I did when I went to Yellowstone was fly into Salt Lake City, Utah. From there we got a rental car and drove up to Yellowstone. We first went and stayed 1-2 nights in Jackson, Wyoming (also known to most people as Jackson Hole). It is located in the right outside of Grand Teton National park which I think is a lot more beautiful than Yellowstone. You could probably spend 2 days just checking out Grand Teton National Park if you wanted to. Then on the way up, we followed Jackson Lake for what seemed like 50 miles. We stayed at Canyon Lodge and Cabins which is kind of like a campground with cabins and it has a mall like building where you can go shopping, get food, and a bunch of other stuff. Once you get away from the lodge area, it's as if you're camping out in the middle of nowhere. We would walk the half mile trail back to our cabin from the dining area and would randomly see deer and other wildlife roaming around as if there were no humans around. If you were to go and stay here, you will want to bring some winter like clothing even in the summer because it's a fairly high elevation and can get REALLY cold in the mornings there. I live in Wisconsin which has some extremely cold winters, and it was a lot colder than I was expecting there. You will also want to look into booking a hotel/cabin about a year in advance because some of the lodging especially at Old Faithful books up a year in advance.
Very sad that this list did not include something from Yosemite. There are numerous places that I have seen personally that top about half this list. This world has beauty everywhere if we are willing to see it.
Also, you say it doesn't look real... photos can sometimes capture things in ways your eyes can't, but nothing is the same as seeing these things with your own eyes. Photo and video do it little justice! I remember seeing pictures of the Grand Canyon, years before I went. Nothing could ever compare to seeing it in person.
I live in Wyoming. The southern part is largely sagebrush. You have to get off of the freeway, but there are several really neat places in Wyoming. The Tetons are Amazing near Jackson. Cody is a great place to experience the American Western Heritage. Lander's Red Canyon and the Wind River Mountains are pretty great. Togwotee Pass is a great drive. I like the drive over the Big Horn Mountains. In the South Lake Powell is pretty neat. If I were exploring the West by car though, I would for sure to include the drive from Rock Springs down to the 4 corners. The drive through Moab, and Vernal, and the Parts that extend into Colorado are just amazing.
MULTNOMAH FALLS is absolutely beautiful - the pictures don't do it justice. It is my son's favorite place and we have walked the bridge - the experience is amazing! The lodge is now a very nice restaurant with very good food. Actually the highway (old highway) that you take to get there has multiple stops all having a waterfall! It is simply and amazing drive and you will never forget it! It's a wonderful place to spend time at! All these places are truly amazing - I've been to several of them. God's wonders are amazing! We are blessed here in the US to have all these wonders right here! Truly something to see!
You can fly into Jackson Wyoming and drive about an hour and half or fly into Bozeman Montana and drive just under 2 hours to Yellowstone, Jackson WY is beautiful with the Grand Teton mountains and old western theme ambiance. I went snowboarding out there years ago and always said if I ever won the lottery I would move there in a heartbeat. The people are super nice. It can be quite expense but was so worth it. Bison burgers are amazing.
I did this exact thing when I went to Yellowstone for work and it was one of the most beautiful drives I've ever done. Flew into Jackson, went in to town for a quick bite, and then drove to Yellowstone with stops along the way. It's a long drive, but it goes quick when you have the Grand Tetons and wild bison to look at along the way.
To get a less touristy experience, go to Pinedale, which is the launching point for the Wind River range and Bridger-Teton National Forest. It's more real, and the burgers are just as good.
The skiing in Jackson hole, in my opinion is better than in Aspen. I said what I said. If you venture not too far from Jackson hole you'll also find a well preserved old frontier town called South Pass.
We own a cabin near West Yellowstone. You can check out both Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park (also in Wyoming) in one trip. With two weeks' time, you can definitely add Glacier National Park to your itinerary. Glacier is about 6 hours north of Yellowstone. Call me biased, but after visiting these three parks, you will be spoiled for scenery. The only thing to keep in mind is that Glacier is only open generally from late June (sometimes as late as mid-July) to early or mid-October. Besides, the National Park Service has just implemented a ticketing system to limit traffic to the Going-to-the-Sun road, THE main road in Glacier.
When I was 15 I went 8,000 miles in 39 days, on a school bus, camping with a bunch of high school kids. 12 states and 4 provinces of Canada. One the most memorable experiences in my life. We hit every National Park on our route. It was a "Field Studies in Earth Sciences" class.
Living in Wyoming, there IS a lot to do! To the east of Yellowstone out the east gate is Cody- full of museums of our western heritage. Going east out of Jackson Hole go for a drive up Towgatee Pass- #5 of the most scenic drives in America!To the south of Yellowstone by a few hours drive are the ghost towns of Atlantic City and South Pass. Then there’s the Sinks up Lander Canyon. I could go on and on! We might have the smallest population for any state BUT we make up for it in beautiful scenery, historical places and good , kind, decent people!
No Yosemite? No Sequoia National Forrest? Really? Here a Question for Millie since she has lived on Jersey her whole live. I imagine the German fortifications are haunted but what are the really haunted places on Jersey? Have you gone there? And if so have you experienced anything?
When you visit Yellowstone, you can also visit Glacier National Park about 4 hours drive away, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse Memorial and Devil's Tower all nearby
I live 35 miles from Watkins Glenn. She didnt show you squat. That and Taughannock falls are beautiful. There are tunnels that water has dug out you walk through.
Very disappointed they showed basically only the more western states. There is beauty in all of our states! I live near the Great Smokes in North Carolina. These mountains are some of the oldest in the world! Really enjoy watching with both of you and hope that you will get to visit us soon!
I agree. I live in NY, and although they showed one place in NY, there are probably hundreds that are beautiful. Honestly, I was disappointed with the list. The good ol' U.S. of A. has thousands of beautiful sights, and they chose some that were kind of boring. I've been here my entire life, and I have come close to seeing them all, but I do know I have seen some that are much more amazing than what this list shows.
If you kids ever make it over to Multnomah Falls (Portland) be sure to use the frontage road accessible via Troutdale, not the freeway median parking area to access it because there are numerous falls all along there in close proximity. My favorite is Oneonta Gorge just a hop, skip n jump east. They can all be done in a day and for day two... head out through Gresham to Sandy and then find the trailhead and have a hike to Ramona Falls. PDX and adjacent lodging are very close to these falls.
The sand dunes at Great Sand Dunes are actually compacted and usually only the top 4 or 5 cm are loose. So it isn't as much work as walking on the beach. I recommend it. Remember to take bug repellent. Mosquitos can be bad at times.
Please let us know what else we can get up to in Wyoming & if there are any states that border it we can explore!!! Thanks for all the support. 🥰
when i went to Wyoming a couple years ago, we went and saw the Devil’s Tower after going to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. Devil’s Tower is a huge mountain of hexagon shaped rocks that sticks straight into the air and looks really cool
Kaycee,Wyoming is a must. Rodeo and the home of the greatest country western singer Chris Ledoux, who was also a world champion bareback rider.
Wyoming borders colorado(where I’m currently at) you can fly into Denver maybe spend some time in Rocky Mountain National park or go up pikes peak outside colorado for a few days then head north to Yellowstone for a week or so. Yellowstone National Park is mostly in Wyoming but is also in montana and idaho
Wyoming is the least populated state so there isn't a lot to do except sightseeing. My husband's parents lived there and we enjoyed just hiking in the mountains.
There are lots of rodeos in Wyoming.
Most cities & towns have a sort of fesival or farm fair or carnival in the summer. Check out the area you want to visit & see what things are going on.
A carnival in middle America usually has some fun rides & arcade games, lots of delicious food & ppl compete against each other in food, animal & handmade crafts. Farm/ranch equipment is displayed & there is usually a parade of some sort. There are clasdic car clubs that will show off & there are often 'motorcycle rides' that you will see on the Highways on the weekends or on major holidays. Oh, and there are usually great bands at these fairs, too.
I still offer to host you absolute legends if you should ever want to visit Hawaii Island.❤
Wherever you choose to go in the USA, we'd be happy to welcome you. The USA loves welcoming happy, genuine people. The fact that you honor our military touches our hearts deeply. You two are very special people who shine with love and light in heartbreaking times. Seeing you smile brought happiness to me. For that I thank you. God bless you both.
Couldn't have said it any better myself Lana.
Agreed. Such horrendous times with young people not having the right attitudes and yet there are people like you guys that are inspirational and push positive.
Keep in mind, there are grumpy people no matter where you go, so don't be too surprised if you happen to run into one here in the states. It does happen, sadly.
How true your words are! America and Americans want to share this country with awesome people on a learning curve! There’s so much in this country, and only uncaring and uneducated (illegal) occupation people have failed to acknowledge or view it. The government’s immediate problem is a totally compromised president and leadership bank, along with a deep volume of compromised bureau workers, career workers biased and willing to practice their bias. Trump was the beginning, DeSantis will be the future after DJT works the remaining four years of his duty.
Eloquently said, I agree!
Any list that doesn't have Yosemite as one of the U.S.'s most beuatiful places is an odd list because it's one of the most stunning places you'll ever see.
exactly
Totally, surprised that Muir Woods didnt show up either. Literally some of the worlds oldest trees.
Or Sequoia.
@@dabooser1048 I love Watkins Glen, but to put it at 6th in the country is crazy. I guess they didn't want the list to be too West Coast centric.
Exactly.I was like no Yosemite?
Enjoying having Millie on the vidi's the surprise in her face make it fun to watch and gives you that back and forth conversation which is great!!
You never stop smiling with a huge grin 😁. Lol Love to see such positive energy .
Can't believe the list didn't include Yosemite, Redwood Forest, Niagara Falls, Pacific Coast Highway, Arches National Park, and many other exceedingly beautiful places.
They would have to make a "The Ten Thousand Most Beautiful Places in America". I have been to enough places to know you can find great and unique beauty almost anywhere you go.
Yes, America is amazingly beautiful, and we Americans are proud of it! Can't wait for you guys to go check all of it out yourselves.
I've been all over this country, and I have to say Multnomah Falls is still my favorite. Stunning.
If your considering Yellowstone look into the national park lodging to add to the experience. You will love them
You both work so well together. Perfect couple. Keep doing videos together as well as your solo ones. It’s very fun to see multiple reactions.
I am blessed to live in the largest park in the continental United States. It's a state park in upstate New York state. It's called the Adirondack Park and it encompasses 6.1 million acres. It contains 102 towns and villages, it contains over 10,000 lakes and ponds and over 30,000 miles of rivers and streams.
It sounds beautiful, and sounds like a lot of great places to fish and swim!
It is truly beautiful. I was there several years ago
Facts I didn't know and lived in nearby Rochester most of my life.
This is a very beautiful state , unfortunately run by poor politicians and it makes it hard to live in. Much like California
Yes, our liberal state government and high taxes are ruining the state. My oldest son moved to Florida and he loves it there and my youngest son just moved to Tennessee. Better paying jobs and in both States no state income tax.
We have Niagara falls, lake Ontario, the Adirondack mountains, wine vineyards, Watkins Glenn, the finger lakes, and much more.
There is no way to truly describe how deeply blue the ocean around Hawaii is; it’s almost hypnotic!
On the other side of the US you have the Emerald Coast in Florida - over 100 miles of sugar sand beaches unlike any other anywhere else!
The beaches on the Gulf Coast, North Florida have sand that is white as snow, much cleaner and better than Miami, Daytona, and Clearwater's fake dredged beach.
@@gregpeterman1102 yes, the panhandle of Florida is the Emerald Coast - you can actually include the little tract of land in Alabama (Gulf Shores & Mobile) is where the sugar sand starts…
@@karaaguilar4982 looks like sugar in Biloxi too.
You could fly into Chicago and rent a car. Driving to Wyoming you could see Mt. Rushmore and the Badlands along the way. Then enjoy the small towns you encounter during the long drive to Yellowstone. Wyoming has old west style towns and former mining towns with a lot of historical character.
You might want to warn them that's a 20 hour drive from Chicago to Yellowstone. Thats not something Brits do very often if ever.
Yellowstone is definitely the park to visit. I've lived in Wyoming all my life and visit there often and still haven't seen everything. I'm currently planning a multiple day float trip fly fishing through Yellowstone canyon. Can't wait.
Fly to Denver?
Fly to Salt Lake City. Then take a smaller plane to Jackson, Wyoming and you are right next to Yellowstone. Plan on at least two days to drive around the park. North-east of the park is Cody, Wyoming that is also worth a visit. I live in Eastern Idaho so I have been to Yellowstone at least a hundred times. You will not be disappointed.
Chicago is quite far from the Dakota's and Wyoming. Better to fly into Denver.
For me, Yellowstone, Bryce Canyon, Mesa Verde, Grand Canyon, Grand Tetons, and Canyonlands are the top places I've been. Also a tip, you could try to do something like the trip I did with my parents where we flew into Denver CO, rented a car and drove up to Yellowstone, then down through various parks to the Grand Canyon before flying out of Denver again. The whole thing took two weeks, and it was ALOT of driving in what is essentially a big circle, but it was also the best trip I've ever been on.
I think your best of list pretty much mirrors mine. Pick any three and go. Trip of a lifetime. Mind blowing scenery
all good, however, I can't see how anyone leaves Yosemite off any/every list off national parks. Yosemite should make the WORLD LIST as their is absolutely no place on Earth like Yosemite.
@@RobertMJohnson it's off mine because it's the one major park in that region that I haven't been too. On both of the trips I went on it was too far off the "route" to see it. However the next time I head to the Rockies I'm making sure I see it.
@@ventusbruma1039 Yes, if you do Yosemite, you want to couple it with the Pacific Coast, San Francisco, Redwoods, Lake Tahoe.
nota bene: Yosemite is in the Sierra Nevada mountains, not the Rockies.
You could spend a month in any location in the US & be amazed at the land, ppl, food.
I did visit England briefly in 1998 & thought it was stunning. It was spring & everything was so green & lush. I loved how peaceful & undeveloped the countrside was. The range of architecture & rich history was mind blowing. Both mine & my husband's families have English roots. I'd love to visit again someday.
London was awesome & very easy to navigate. The ppl were friendly. Being an Arthur Conan Doyle nerd I had to have a Shepherd's Pie at 221 Baker Steet. I also visited Leeds Castle. I really want to go to Stonehenge.
There's some theories that Arthur Conan Doyle was actually Jack the Ripper. His biography fits the skills that Jack the Ripper had.
@@WhatDayIsItTrumpDay i believe it was Walter Sickert
@@AnnieAnnieBuckwheatCakes I didn't know how Walter Sickert was, but after reading about him and looking at his paintings, I've concluded that yes.. it was totally him
I love Arthur Conan Doyle's books! I used to read, and reread all of the Sherlock Holmes stories.
@@WhatDayIsItTrumpDay Never heard that.
Yosemite is crazy beautiful. There are several other national parks nearby that are spectacular which include the General Sherman Tree, the world's largest tree by volume. A trip up the Pacific Coast Highway would be an amazing couple's trip. Stops at Hearst Castle, Big Sur, 17 mile drive, Golden Gate Bridge, and Muir Woods are a must.
Michigan (the mitten) and the U.P are a must-visit. Come see "The Falls", visit the Whitefish Point museum, bring a handkerchief, for the tears. Climb the lighthouse, eat the Pasties!!! Cross the bridge at Mackinaw, Visit Mackinaw Island, eat some fudge. SO many things to do and see!
Absolutely ❤❤❤👏👏
And in addition to all the famous national parks, all the states also protect land themselves. We do land conservation very well in this country.
Easy to do when you have 4 million square miles (10 million square kilometers) of it and it's mostly just empty space not being used for anything other than as a home for the animals that live there.
@@jdanon203 That's fair
Our last president sold 10.6 million acres of public lands (including Bears Ears National Monument). Over half of that land (equivalent to the size of New Jersey) went to oil and gas developers, meaning those lands will now be destroyed and polluted. The lands he offered for sale totaled 106 million acres.
ehhhhh, thats debatable...
@@sophiedash4026 it’s a catch22 huh. It’s not a bad thing to be self preserving. People want things both ways. How about we just start limiting the amount of children people can have and how many people we allow into the country using those precious resources. Then we can save more land and resources. Let’s do some compromises to help both sides.
I live about 2 hours from the Sand Dunes in Colorado and it is absolutely worth the visit. The video also doesn't do justice to just how beautiful the surrounding area is.
My favorite place in the world is Grand Lake Colorado. The town itself is small and not over priced, right next Rocky Mountain national park, has good fishing/hunting and hiking access and friendly locals. I definitely recommend going there
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Lake,_Colorado
The Sangre de Cristo mountains are rough. They look so unique. Grew up in Denver and hiked around there a few times. Truly an amazing spot.
@@mycroft16 yup. My grandparents owned a ranch in the middle of the San Juan valley surrounded by the mountains. The whole area is absolutely stunning.
@@calibadgerdude6082 Legit jealous. Must have been amazingly peaceful to visit.
I live 3 hours from Galcier Park in Montana. You could spend a lifetime trying to discover all its wonders.
If your going to Wyoming check out the Grand Tetons national park. I enjoyed it more than Yellowstone.
you can see tetons while getting there
Of all the things invented in the US, ‘national parks’ remains one of the very best ideas
I was just as the Na Pali coast in summer, its so beautiful! I miss hawaii
We miss our tourists! I apologize for our broken & complicated state gov't.
@@AnnieAnnieBuckwheatCakes its okay i had a blast!! thank you!!
Glacier National Park is stunning! Yellowstone requires several days minimum. It is huge and different sites are located hours apart.
Hubby and I took a helicopter tour from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon. I cried, it was so beautiful! Champaign brunch down in the canyon topped the adventure off.
Hiking in Zion National Park (reference to the first one, Angel's Landing) is an awe inspiring experience. If you like to hike and be completely alone, this is where you want to go.
Completely alone in Zion? Besides thousands of tourists? Get real!
@@troyottosen8722 I've, personally, hiked into the canyon a few times, stayed for 4 or 5 days and never saw a soul, except on the hill down and back up. Up on the short hikes on the hill there are plenty of people, but not many campers or overnighters that hike in and out.
@@troyottosen8722
So positive, Tony.
Don't be hitting us with those negative waves.
@@thefederalist9982 , Truth hurts, don’t it?😉
@@troyottosen8722 um guys grand canyon is huge. Maybe where the person was it wasn't crowded. You can see it from las Vegas as a day trip to a Indian reserve. No one is there not even a fence to stop you. You could drive by it. Just a guy a standing in the road
I wish someone would do a video of the top 10 places to visit, in each of the 50 states. It is amazing what each state has to offer.
This comment should be pinned at the top. That would be amazing to see. Every state I've been in (most of them) have something spectacular about them Arkansas is full of hidden gems. A small state but vasily different from top to bottom side to side. I'm not from there but I love a good road trip.
Yellowstone is beautiful. We went in the winter and toured it by snowmobile. Absolutely beautiful winter wonderland. Glacier NP is our vacation for 2022.
2 places they left out are the Grand Canyon (which is one mile deep) and the Redwood forest, in California, where you can drive through massive ancient trees!
Little known fact from an American...we love y'alls accents ! 😁
I highly recommend visiting Utah! There are the "Mighty 5" National Parks. Zion, Bryce, Canyonlands, Arches, Capitol Reef. You can travel the mighty 5 and get a really true "American West" experience ! Absolutely beautiful!
I second this. UT has one of the more diverse landscapes as well... from high alpine tundra and mountain peaks to a near carbon copy of Horseshoe Bend (they snuck a picture in of Dead Horse Point in this video actually) and Zion's etc. Yellowstone is unmatched though. I have no idea how it wasn't number 1. Every bend in the road there you discover some new incredible sight. It felt otherworldly watching thunderstorms roll over the park while standing in front of geysers and mud pots bubbling away.
Yes Went to Arches and was amazed at it. Utah is a beautiful state.
@@MrEd-qg8td I have lived in Utah my entire life and I have never ever been to a national park here lol.
Utah is beautiful!
@@Corn_Fed_Beef Wow! You need to go! I went with a group of LDS Single Adults. I'm not from Utah, from Washington state.
Watkin's Glen is amazing. It's looks like it was made by a special effects company because it's so perfect.
Not even mentioned but standing on the cliff edge of the Grand Canyon is an experience like no other
I live in southern Arizona. The Sonoran desert is absolutely gorgeous. The most beautiful sunsets you've ever seen.
if you dont die form 120 heat , like that one family did
The Napali Coast is easily the most stunning and beautiful place I've ever seen. So far beyond the next most beautiful (Lake Tahoe) that I haven't even the words to explain the difference. I felt like I was breathless the entire time I was there because it was so overwhelming. I still get a swoop of excitement in my stomach when I think back on it.
Aerial America is one of the best shows to see the beauty of our country!

I'm from Montana and you should DEFINITELY come to Yellowstone and Glacier National Park! You could visit both, as West Yellowstone is in the southern most part of MT while Glacier is near the Canadian border. I would recommend flying into Billings or Bozeman and renting a car. I'd also recommend checking out Red Lodge, Big Sky, and Missoula. My wife and I are in Billings (the largest city) and would be more than happy to meet up or answer any questions you may have! :)
From personal experience, I can assure you the night sky when observed from Glacier National Park is absolutely stunning. I camped in the mountains there over a decade ago and one of my favorite parts was staring in awe at the number of stars that were visible.
you can almost touch the stars!!!!
Zion National Park is a must visit for foreigners. It's essential Western motif. Basically whatever you envision the American Southwest to look like in classic Western movies, it's all there in Zion National Park. I think that the Johnny Depp "Lone Ranger" film was filmed around there. Bryce Canyon National Park is also nearby and is like an Alien Planet.
I visited Carlsbad Caverns in 1985 as an 11 year old. Awesome place. Very cool labyrinth of walkways to take to tour the cave system. To get to the Big Room, you can take an elevator straight down to it, or you can walk down to it through winding paths in narrower areas of the cave. But the whole thing is very well lit and maintained. What we did was to buy one of those tourist books that showed some of the most interesting formations in the cave beforehand and then whe we took the tour, it was fun referencing back to the images in the book whenever we'd come across the real formations.
The colors are so much more amazing in person
This is kind of a wonky list, IMHO. These are AMONG the most beautiful places in the country. But there are literally hundreds of other that could have (and should have) made the list. The Grand Canyon, Crater Lake, Monument Valley, Yosemite, Joshua Tree, the Goat Rocks Wilderness in the Cascades, the White Mountains in New Hampshire, etc.
Me and my family went on a nice trip I'd recommend to you guys - we flew into Las Vegas and rented a car and immediately drove off to do a kind of triangle trip starting at Zion then to Bryce Canyon, and then to the Grand Canyon! - was amazing and everyone had a good time - naturally we finished things off with 2 days in Vegas and flew home from there!
-But I'd recommend that trip to anyone; was a great vacation with a little bit of everything
*My family and I
@@paulkane7771 lol yes Paul, you are right - hopefully your english teacher sees your comment and you are rewarded
Glacier is amazing. My cousin got married in the park so we all stayed at a lodge right outside the park, a cute log cabin, and spent the weekend hiking around the park. It was amazing.
I work in Watkins Glen, I have been to the gorge many times. A must see when visiting the Finger Lakes area
Love your videos! Thank you for giving Americans a chance and not judging us based on the same tired ignorant stereotypes the way most people do. 🙂
Hello British friends, I’m surprised the Grand Canyon, Yosemite National Park, and Sedona’s red rocks aren’t on that list. 🤔
Check those out too 😊
I've done a cross Country road trip from NYC to CA. (Missing WAY too many places) and it still continues to blow my mind how many completely different terrains, landscapes, and cultures we have in this one amazing Country.
At 9:30 about the Multnomah falls. I grew up in Portland in the 80s and 90s I ve been to them many times. They are as beautiful and more as what your thinking. Especially in the winter. Well worth seeing on your walk about in America.
It would be great if you, as a couple, would film a few areas of attraction near you or just places you find special, beautiful, interesting or simply relaxing. If would be fun to watch and could make for a nice date day for your lady.
I'm a Colorado native and I love the sand dunes it is actually a cool place and it's very close to the Royal gorge which is a really cool place as well if you ever get an opportunity to come to Colorado you should definitely visit those places also hanging lake the hot springs all the different Rock canyons Colorado is actually a very beautiful state
Should add Big Bend at night! It's one of the best national parks to see the milky way Galaxy! Stargazing there is amazing!! Definitely recommend.
I realize I’m late on some of these videos, but I found y’all’s channel yesterday and I’ve pretty much been watching ever since. Great content! You guys are awesome!
I live in Utah and you can take international flights into Salt Lake City. Utah has a ton of national parks, including Zion national park, Arches National park, and Bryce Canyon national park. We border Wyoming, Idaho, and Colorado and we’re only a day drive to Yellowstone. If you want to visit Wyoming, I’d recommend starting in Utah, driving up through Idaho (maybe stopping at the hot springs there), heading to Jackson Wyoming, visiting Grand Teton National Park, then driving up to Yellowstone. It’s such a beautiful road trip full of national forests, wildlife, and snow capped mountains. ^_^
I spent 3 weeks in Yellowstone as a kid through a program called “People To People”. It’s like an ambassador program for gifted kids and it was the best trip I’ve ever been on in my life next to Italy. It has some of the most raw beauty I’ve ever seen and I travel ALOT. and there’s always stuff to do. Hiking, white water rafting down the Colorado river, fly fishing.. it really is unreal. I went to the Montana portion but also took day trips to the Idaho portion a few tomes
Yes, Zion National Park is great to see in person and possibly my favorite of all of the ones listed!
These best part of this video, is that the best parts aren't in it. Obviously highlights of the big boys are here, but thousands of different places could easily take the places of thes listed in their own rite.
The great sand dunes are impressive and fun because you can sled down the dunes, but it is a several hours drive from the nearest sizable airport. My son and I drove out there and camped at a nearby state park for the night.
Taking an ATV on the dunes is amazing fun!!
And Angel's Landing is also one of the most dangerous places to hike in the NP system. It has had more than it's share of hikers fall to their death.
During particularly cold winters Multnoma Falls freezes. It's so breathtaking
All these beautiful places and the most visited national park, The Great Smoky Mountains in E. Tennessee, NC Kentucky W. Virginia and GA is amazingly beautiful. Especially during the the fall season when the leaves turn multiple different colors. Cades Cove in itself is amazing
Yes i agree those tennessee mountains are breathtaking. They need to get a cabin rental in those mountains omg😍😍
@@angelnelson2012 shoot a message I can tell you the best ones. There’s 20-30 cabin rental places, well more but 5-6 of them are remote yet 10-15 mins from the Pigeon forge and Gatlinburg strip
@@TreyM1609 i cant wait to go
10:16 It is in Yellowstone and some of Yellowstone looks just like that. Multicolored springs & mud pots. For my money, go 40 miles south to Grand Teton National Park for beauty. But Yellowstone is a stunning geophysical display. 15:52 Wyoming is a sparsely populated state. If you want to see the 'West' of Hollywood that is one place to go. Just south of Yellowstone & Grand Teton is Jackson Hole. One of my favorite ski resorts. Winters are brutal there so don't go in winter. There are exceptions to this & things to do in winter. Wyoming is not a 'party central' place to be. There are many sites to see (with long distances between each) & you might consider Wyoming or Montana for a 'dude ranch' experience. I have spent time in Wyoming & much of it is like a high plains desert. Maybe Rocky Mountain National park (N Colorado), Grand Teton/Yellowstone (NW Wyoming), and Glacier National park (N Montana) for a two week tour. Keep in mind each of these is about 400-500 miles apart. A lot of that is high altitude also. Just take it easy on the exertion.
Grand Teton/Yellostone is in the Northwest (NW) Wyoming, not the Northeast (NE). If you are driving, one out-of-the-way place to visit is the Medicine Wheel in the north Big Horn Mountains (north central Wyoming). A structure used by ancient natives for seasonal time keeping, similar to Stonehenge.
@@michaeloswalt3809 Sorry. Hit the wrong keys.
Some of the images used for Horseshoe Bend are actually Dead Horse Point State Park just outside Moab, Utah. They are the images with the flat plateau on the point. Moab is a good location to stay and do day trips out into the beautiful desert areas.
I really enjoy watching your videos. Keep 'em coming.
Just wondering. I keep hearing Millie talking about getting images on canvas. Is Millie an artist? If you enjoy paintings of landscapes you should check out an American institution. His name was Bob Ross. He had a TV show for many years, and did a painting tutorial each show. He had very different methods. Became almost a folk hero. Check out an episode of The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross. It will at the very least be something different for you.
Bob Ross had a television show that was on in the 70s. Even as a young child I remember being so engrossed in every episode. A true legend.
I have taken the boat trip from Key West out to Dry Tortugas National Park. It is a great day trip, especially if you like a bit of history as well. Also, you can go snorkeling in the area to look at the sea life.
America's national parks are beautiful. But the state parks in every state are beautiful too. America's state parks are our hidden gems that most tourists don't know about. Awesome Video!
Mount Rushmore is located in the badlands of South Dakota and there are some breathtaking views as well plenty of fun things to do.
I've been to all of these places... absolutely worth the trip. Wyoming is a great place... beautiful scenery. If you go there...you should research the region. I believe there's a few Ghost Towns from our Wild West days.
Drove through Wyoming about 30+ years ago. Stopped for lunch in a small town called Chugwater. It was so quiet even the dog in the street looked at us weird because we were talking.
Having spent much of my life in Montana I have been to Yellowstone literally close to 100 times and to Glacier 5 times. I can tell you that they are both actually prettier than the pictures! Yellowstone is huge.
You can fly to Bozeman, Montana 90 miles away & then get a tour to Yellowstone. You MUST book around a year in advance. It can be very busy. Both parks are mostly closed in the Winter due to heavy snow & very cold temperatures. You can go to Yellowstone in the winter by snow coach & it is a different world altogether.
Would you say going by snow coach is better? I've always wanted to go. It also looks very busy in the summertime, I'd like to go when there are fewer people around
@@landminehopscotch3617 It really depends on you & your comfort with the cold. The park is empty in the winter, except for snow coaches, snow mobiles & cross country skiiers so you really can see things! But it can be very cold and the snow can cover a few things. They do have snow coach tours & a winter lodge close to Old Faithful. Bring heavy coats, boots, mittens, hats, face gaiters & long underwear. But it is a great way to see the park! And winter can have sunny days, even in the cold.
Devils Tower near Moorcroft, Wyoming is where Close Encounters of the 3rd kind was filmed. Grand Tetons is always nice Hiking trails also.
I've lived here all my life. But u two make me feel like I'm seeing it for the first time ty
You can absolutely fly into Wyoming. Jackson is kind of the "posh" town in Wyoming and it is basically in Yellowstone.
You can also enter from Montana from Billings, Bozeman, or Helena. Probably more people and a little more budget friendly than Jackson.
You guys need to do a cross country road trip through America.
Y’all are my favorite people you genuinely make Me happy
Yellowstone is so beautiful.....l worked there in the summer in 1977....had a great time
Where you go depends on what you want to do. Do you want to hike on wilderness trails? Scuba dive? Bird watch? Ski? Or are you content to view things from the comfort of your car and share the more public areas of a park with a lot of other people on easily accessible trails? In addition to seeing natural wonders, do you also want to check out some of the city pleasures -- museums, architecture, varied cultures, great food? BTW, I'm not a big fan of this list. Nice places but I can name dozens I think are more beautiful.
Hi Beesley & Milliie, I know you already looked at the comments so I hope you see this. I agree with another comment...fly into billings Montana or Denver. You will get best air fare into these. I have done both....but my favorite was driving from Denver. 1st .. if you've never seen MOUNTAINS irl from Denver you can just make out the foothills driving north they come into view....it was Awesome 2. most the main roads are like 80 mph or greater so since Jersey is
max 40....strap in. 3. Allow plenty of mouth hanging open views, overlooks and hikes. Fun fact for Beesley you don't have to hide in your car as long you don't hike too deep plus they put up. 🐻 bear warning signs whenever they have been reported.
I totally agree. I was shocked to see some things left out that are, in my opinion, better than a few of the things on this list. One of my favorite places is Alaska. The rainforests are breathtaking. Easy or tough hikes for spectacular views in 65-70 degrees in the summer. Wildlife everywhere. “British Couple” have some gorgeous spots around them too. The Earth is a special place 🥰
I grew up in Colorado; every year, my science teacher would take us on a field trip down to the "Dunes" (it was about a four- or five-hour drive from where I grew up in south-western Colorado). The creek which runs by the Dunes pulsates, like a heartbeat; every twenty or thirty seconds or so, a larger pulse of water would come downstream. I never did find out what caused it.
I visited once back when i was a teenager. at first i just thought of dunes as just.... sand and dunes... nothing impressive. then when the dunes came into view i couldn't believe the size of them. they were incredible. it was truly one of the best experiences i've had. they are definitely worth a visit. absolutely incredible.
I've been to Glasher national park. It is absolutely amazing. I was there for my grandfather's 65th birthday back in the late 90s.
I literally live 4 hours drive away from Yellowstone. And if you get the chance, you definitely need to see it. You can spend an entire week on just that park alone.
On top of that, there are other natural wonders, that video just scratches the surface.
You could easily just catch a connecting flight to somewhere like Salt Lake City if you can't make it in one flight. Once there you could get a rental car to Yellowstone. Once near Yellowstone you could rent an RV, rent a campsite in the park and drive to places, if you're on a budget you could probably rent a moving van and sleep in that
There are so many gorgeous sights, landscapes, and architectural wonders to see in the US it woyld take a lifetime to explore. The US is huge compared to UK. Yellowstone is a must see though, just don't go feeding the wildlife.
I from England and I have travelled all over the USA been through 27 states and its a lot better than the UK.
Proud to say I've been to half these places (Multnomah Falls, Horseshoe Bend, the Sand Dunes, Angel's Landing, and the spring in Yellowstone) The United States really is the most beautiful country in the world, simply because there's so much variety. I believe we are the only country to contain every biome in the world
What I did when I went to Yellowstone was fly into Salt Lake City, Utah. From there we got a rental car and drove up to Yellowstone. We first went and stayed 1-2 nights in Jackson, Wyoming (also known to most people as Jackson Hole). It is located in the right outside of Grand Teton National park which I think is a lot more beautiful than Yellowstone. You could probably spend 2 days just checking out Grand Teton National Park if you wanted to. Then on the way up, we followed Jackson Lake for what seemed like 50 miles. We stayed at Canyon Lodge and Cabins which is kind of like a campground with cabins and it has a mall like building where you can go shopping, get food, and a bunch of other stuff. Once you get away from the lodge area, it's as if you're camping out in the middle of nowhere. We would walk the half mile trail back to our cabin from the dining area and would randomly see deer and other wildlife roaming around as if there were no humans around. If you were to go and stay here, you will want to bring some winter like clothing even in the summer because it's a fairly high elevation and can get REALLY cold in the mornings there. I live in Wisconsin which has some extremely cold winters, and it was a lot colder than I was expecting there. You will also want to look into booking a hotel/cabin about a year in advance because some of the lodging especially at Old Faithful books up a year in advance.
You'd fly into Denver International. From there you can drive the 8-10 hours to Yellowstone or get a small plane to get you closer.
Very sad that this list did not include something from Yosemite. There are numerous places that I have seen personally that top about half this list. This world has beauty everywhere if we are willing to see it.
Also, you say it doesn't look real... photos can sometimes capture things in ways your eyes can't, but nothing is the same as seeing these things with your own eyes. Photo and video do it little justice! I remember seeing pictures of the Grand Canyon, years before I went. Nothing could ever compare to seeing it in person.
Indeed 🤩
The day I visited Grand Canyon it was cloudy and overcast 😥. I was a little disappointed, but I wouldn't hesitate to try again.
I live in Wyoming. The southern part is largely sagebrush. You have to get off of the freeway, but there are several really neat places in Wyoming. The Tetons are Amazing near Jackson. Cody is a great place to experience the American Western Heritage. Lander's Red Canyon and the Wind River Mountains are pretty great. Togwotee Pass is a great drive. I like the drive over the Big Horn Mountains. In the South Lake Powell is pretty neat. If I were exploring the West by car though, I would for sure to include the drive from Rock Springs down to the 4 corners. The drive through Moab, and Vernal, and the Parts that extend into Colorado are just amazing.
MULTNOMAH FALLS is absolutely beautiful - the pictures don't do it justice. It is my son's favorite place and we have walked the bridge - the experience is amazing! The lodge is now a very nice restaurant with very good food. Actually the highway (old highway) that you take to get there has multiple stops all having a waterfall! It is simply and amazing drive and you will never forget it! It's a wonderful place to spend time at! All these places are truly amazing - I've been to several of them. God's wonders are amazing! We are blessed here in the US to have all these wonders right here! Truly something to see!
You can fly into Jackson Wyoming and drive about an hour and half or fly into Bozeman Montana and drive just under 2 hours to Yellowstone, Jackson WY is beautiful with the Grand Teton mountains and old western theme ambiance. I went snowboarding out there years ago and always said if I ever won the lottery I would move there in a heartbeat. The people are super nice. It can be quite expense but was so worth it. Bison burgers are amazing.
I did this exact thing when I went to Yellowstone for work and it was one of the most beautiful drives I've ever done. Flew into Jackson, went in to town for a quick bite, and then drove to Yellowstone with stops along the way. It's a long drive, but it goes quick when you have the Grand Tetons and wild bison to look at along the way.
To get a less touristy experience, go to Pinedale, which is the launching point for the Wind River range and Bridger-Teton National Forest. It's more real, and the burgers are just as good.
The skiing in Jackson hole, in my opinion is better than in Aspen. I said what I said. If you venture not too far from Jackson hole you'll also find a well preserved old frontier town called South Pass.
@@ShadowRyu “I said what I said” 😂😂 made me laugh. I’m going to have to check that out.
@@ShadowRyu Jackson is known for having some of the best powder anywhere. I like it much more than Aspen overall.
We own a cabin near West Yellowstone. You can check out both Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park (also in Wyoming) in one trip. With two weeks' time, you can definitely add Glacier National Park to your itinerary. Glacier is about 6 hours north of Yellowstone. Call me biased, but after visiting these three parks, you will be spoiled for scenery.
The only thing to keep in mind is that Glacier is only open generally from late June (sometimes as late as mid-July) to early or mid-October. Besides, the National Park Service has just implemented a ticketing system to limit traffic to the Going-to-the-Sun road, THE main road in Glacier.
100% agree. For a two week trip, these are the 3 parks you should visit.
When I was 15 I went 8,000 miles in 39 days, on a school bus, camping with a bunch of high school kids. 12 states and 4 provinces of Canada. One the most memorable experiences in my life. We hit every National Park on our route. It was a "Field Studies in Earth Sciences" class.
Living in Wyoming, there IS a lot to do! To the east of Yellowstone out the east gate is Cody- full of museums of our western heritage. Going east out of Jackson Hole go for a drive up Towgatee Pass- #5 of the most scenic drives in America!To the south of Yellowstone by a few hours drive are the ghost towns of Atlantic City and South Pass. Then there’s the Sinks up Lander Canyon. I could go on and on! We might have the smallest population for any state BUT we make up for it in beautiful scenery, historical places and good , kind, decent people!
No Yosemite? No Sequoia National Forrest? Really? Here a Question for Millie since she has lived on Jersey her whole live. I imagine the German fortifications are haunted but what are the really haunted places on Jersey? Have you gone there? And if so have you experienced anything?
Yosemite should be on this list for sure
He said there is an upcoming 2 Part video of America's National Parks. I am sure they will be on one of those videos
The Sequoia Redwoods in California are amazing so is White Sands National Monument in New Mexico. There are 1000's of beautiful spots in America
When you visit Yellowstone, you can also visit Glacier National Park about 4 hours drive away, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse Memorial and Devil's Tower all nearby
I live 35 miles from Watkins Glenn. She didnt show you squat. That and Taughannock falls are beautiful. There are tunnels that water has dug out you walk through.
Very disappointed they showed basically only the more western states. There is beauty in all of our states! I live near the Great Smokes in North Carolina. These mountains are some of the oldest in the world! Really enjoy watching with both of you and hope that you will get to visit us soon!
I agree. I live in NY, and although they showed one place in NY, there are probably hundreds that are beautiful. Honestly, I was disappointed with the list. The good ol' U.S. of A. has thousands of beautiful sights, and they chose some that were kind of boring. I've been here my entire life, and I have come close to seeing them all, but I do know I have seen some that are much more amazing than what this list shows.
Yellowstone for sure. It's beautiful.
You should look up the wolves of Yellowstone, they restored the ecosystem in a big way.
Great reaction. 🤘🏻❤️
If you kids ever make it over to Multnomah Falls (Portland) be sure to use the frontage road accessible via Troutdale, not the freeway median parking area to access it because there are numerous falls all along there in close proximity. My favorite is Oneonta Gorge just a hop, skip n jump east. They can all be done in a day and for day two... head out through Gresham to Sandy and then find the trailhead and have a hike to Ramona Falls. PDX and adjacent lodging are very close to these falls.
The sand dunes at Great Sand Dunes are actually compacted and usually only the top 4 or 5 cm are loose. So it isn't as much work as walking on the beach. I recommend it. Remember to take bug repellent. Mosquitos can be bad at times.
