Why did I post anything from PA. These places are magnificent.

Thought Emoji Movie was good. Take that as you will.
Oregon, with Washington, California, Montana in close succession... Upstate NY is beautiful as well.. but Oregon has everything.
I could go on.. and shit looks just like these pics. We're legit.

That's what happens when you divide by zero.

Thor's well @ Cape Perpetua
You gotta hit the tide just right, but when you do it's magnificent.
Devil's Churn and Spouting Horn are awesome as well.

Washington State is my idea of heaven.
Colorado isn't too shabby either.

California has a wide variety of beautiful things. We have beaches, redwoods, desert, Yosemite, etc. All within a few hours.
Here's a picture of Big Sur, along Pacific Coast Highways (one of the best drives you can take):
Everything in this post is correct. I drove there just last week!

Holy shit that's a Jet Moto track!
A little imagination added of course.

I really wanted to say California, but I have to go with Alaska. Most of it is just so untouched and beautiful.

Nobody in this thread has said Michigan, but if you talk to Michiganders they will absolutely say it is the most beautiful.
They are wrong, though, every single one of them.

PA has some decent views.
PA grandcanyon. Went last year
That picture is Delaware Water Gap (which is a really overlooked part of the National Park System.)
I am quite fond of Utah.
As someone who is apprehensive about moving from the urban buzz of DC to a tiny rural PA hamlet in the next two months, I appreciated it more than you'll ever know.

The Wisconsin love in this thread. 
What a great thread idea. Just another reminder of how important it is to protect our world.

This picture doesn't really look attractive, sorry.

omg at this thread
As someone who has spent all their time in Montana and Washington, I can comfortably say NOT MONTANA. The western side of the state has some pretty amazing scenery, but most the state is a brown, boring, wasteland.
Meanwhile, even the drier parts of WA are much better, nevermind the west side of the state, which is beyond amazing.

Its quite refreshing to see the nice side of America on here for a change. There are some amazing vistas in this thread.

I've been to about half of the states, and while I give nods to Pennsylvania in the fall, Utah, and the Florida Keys, California just wins this easily. You can pretty much get any sort of environment that you want. Mountains, Snow, Tropical-esque beaches, bustling cityscapes, country farms, vineyards, deserts, rocky cliffs. I mean look at some of these places:
What other state gives you all of this? California is nuts.

lol sure thing pal.
Other states have beautiful things in them. They just lack variety. Utah is gorgeous and needs more love in this thread. Hawaii is also amazing.

I think China is the only place that could compete. It's gigantic as well though so there's lots of varied landscapes.

I've been to a lot of the states posted here, but I now realize that we need to visit Montana.
I live in Nebraska. Trust me, it's not always the state you live in.

I'm not from or living in wv, but for my money it's number one. Beautiful state.West Virginians talk like all we see is this...
...but its more like this.
West Virginians are so insular they honestly think we're the best place to live and the prettiest place around.
My vote goes to Montana.
After driving from Maine to Washington state and back plus several road trips up and down the east coast and through the upper mid west I can say that there are a lot states that could be a contender for title of most beautiful. The US is incredible in regards to natural beauty and the variety of it. I've lived overseas most of my life and spend a lot of time traveling around different countries. I've been to some incredibly beautiful places but the US is unique in its sheer diversity.

I'm from Michigan and I know a lot of people here who think it's the most beautiful place on earth. There are beautiful areas of course, but of the states I've been to Tennessee, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maine, Colorado and California are far more beautiful. Can't wait to move out of this shitty state.

Probably California. Yosemite looks amazing, I want to go there some day.
