    Not looking for your favorite cities. What are your favorite places, near or far, to enjoy the outdoors?

    Yellowstone.

    It's touristy and crowded and yet still amazing.

    Big Bend is spectacular. Seriously. Go.

    Yellowstone/Grand Tetons and Yosemite are my other two favorites.

    Not as famous as some others but Rocky Mountain National Park just north of Denver/Boulder area has some of the best scenic views and trails out of all the national parks!

    It's better in the fall. Less fools and scrappier critters.

    Most beautiful place I've ever seen with my own eyes is the Grand Canyon. No picture of any kind does that place justice.

    Yellowstone is the most amazing place I've ever been. It's so easy to be totally in awe of about 10 different places in one day

    Banff/Jasper/Kananaskis is close
