We definitely want another trip this coming summer. We're debating of doing a more northwest loop including Rushmore, Badlands, Tetons, Yellowstone and maybe as far as Glacier. Or, a northeastern loop, NYC, coast up through Maine, maybe Nova Scotia? No doubt from me that I would go northwest...my wife wants the other loop.
Any thoughts?
For me it would be your NW loop all the way. The Appalachians seem more similar than different from south to north, and the east is pretty crowded. Yellowstone, Tetons, Glacier - awesome - magnificent mountains, thermal features, canyons, elk, moose, bighorn sheep, mountain goat, bears, wolves, bison...
