True, but we have our 'highlights' as well;
One which comes to mind for me is the scenic overlooks along Route 17 in Maine, heading north from Rumford, to the Rangely Lakes region.
Of course there are also all of the great roads/scenic areas down in your general 'neck of the woods' as well.
But yeah, for sheer outright
diversity of beautiful topography, it is really hard to beat Cali.
