That is a big question. You could spend months in California and not see it all.

A few of High Lights though are:

California Redwoods. Oldest living trees on earth. North west coast and Grant Grove in the High Sierras.

Yosemite, one of the beautiful National Parks

Big Sur, Great coastal area in California

Visiting America's National Parks is a great way to see our country. There are many in all parts of the U.S.A. and most offer camping facilities in or near the parks.

It's not, but it should be one of the 7 wonders of the world..

Columbia River Gorge, Oregon and Washington State

Words can not describe it. Breathtaking is as close as I can get.

UTAH Parks are a must see!!!!

Bryce Canyon and Arches especially - the miles of bizarre red, pink, and white rock formations are from another planet - unbelievably beautiful. I'm addicted and have to travel there almost every year.

How mnay life times would you have to spend. I think it would take several to see it all. I suggest that you start with they type of thing that interests you. The bubbling mud pots of Yellowstone, the huge trees in the Red Woods, the snow capped mountains of Cascades, the barren multicolored rocks of the big canyons, the desert cactus. The list goes on and on and on and on. Maybe a some history in Wasington DC and surrounding areas, or how about ghost towns of the west. A bit of fishing along the coasts, a swim in ocean.

Mind boggling, so I think I'll stop there.

The Cascade Lakes Scenic Highway near Bend, Oregon. It is volcano country -- the mountains, hiking trails and lava formations are spectacular. Olympic National Park in the northwest corner of the state of Washington. If you come to the northwest, plan on July through September. Winter here is dismal-- like now.

I'd recommend Yellowstone. Amazing place.

I'd recommend going to the Smithsonian Museums: http://www.si.edu/museums/

If you do go to Utah when it's hot in the summer, it's worth it to stop by Bear Lake, which is a warm (it was like bathwater when we were there), very turquoise, huge, sandy lake. Nice to swim in, and I think they have good RV sites and not many people there.

Arizona's Grand Canyon is amazing.

May I add Big Bend National Park in Texas? Beautiful. Texas offers many beautiful parks to camp in, great food (anybody like Mexican food?) and friendly people. Ya'll come!

And yes, we Texans do tow our campers with vehicles - not horses!

Rob-When visiting the United States you must remember that our states are almost as big as your countries. I once met some people from Isreal who came to see the US. They thought that 3 months would give them plenty of time. At the end of their 3 months, they had seen part of 8 states (we have 50 states.) They decided that they would need at least 3 years just ot do a short visit to each state. They also could not believe that people here hook up thier trailers, load their 4 children in the car and take off on a 2 or 3 week vacation and travel 5000 miles (8000 km.)

A good comparison between the US and Europe-You think 400 miles (640 km) is a long ways, we think 400 years is a long time. Your history goes back a long way, we routinely travel long distances on vacations.

Wow!
What a question.
Our two countries are over 3000 miles coast to coast, and range from tropical to arctic. As two nations we boast of our Rocky Mountians, central deserts and rolling praries, palm trees of Florida and the borial forests of Northern Canada. Our Northern Territories, the Yukon and Alaska boast of the tundra, the white bears, the Eskimo,the forest, the mining the oil. Long rivers such as the Mackenzie, the St Lawrence, and the Missiissippi traverse our countries.The Great Lakes are inland seas that we share. If the USA was settled on horseback then Canada was settled by canoe. We like to think that we are different from each other but we share this great continent. Our commerce and our language ties us together and often our families live in or come from both countries. We are as diverse as all the countries of Europe and much larger. Each state of the United States and each provence of Canada is as individul as each European country. If we gather together you can not tell us apart except by our local dialects or accent. Still, we are each fiercly proud to be an American or a Canadian and would not have it any other way. We are separated from Europe by 1500 miles of water but we are separated from each other only by a line on a map. It would take many books to tell you all about us so PLEASE come and see us. Let us share this great land with you.

I will extend the same invitation to our Italian (& European) friends as I do to the member of this forum. If you come close to central Wisconsin, give me a call and I will camp with you. I can put you up for a few nights in a camper parked in the yard or at my Dad's tree farm. Everyone is welcome. Just remember, it's cold in the winter and buggy in the summer.

Oh this Italian-American-Michigander would agree!

A second vote for Glacier National Park in Montana & Teton National Park in Wyoming

I do love those mountains
