No doubt! And British Columbia? That place is beautiful with the mountains and ocean views

Canada is beautiful, but I do agree the USA has just about every type of terrain out there in one Country. Kinda like the state of TX, we have a mountain range to the SW Big Bend Area, Pine Tree Forest, beaches (nothing like Florida or Hawaii lol), beautiful hill country, flat plains, and then marsh lands.

Whenever I finally get the time & the money I truly want to take my 95 D1 from TX, thru Colorado, Utah, up to the PNW, and then up into Canada. That is my dream of a life time trip. No time rush, no minute by minute plans, just me my Land Rover, my wife (if she wants to go), and just the great outdoors/mother nature.

Nova Scotia

Calgary

Ontario
Three pretty good reasons to explore....... been to all three plus Banff and Victoria. Canada is wild once out of the dish pan middle. Drove the Trans-Canada Highway to the Pacific and back, military travel, fishing trips.

.
While we lack the deserts and plains, New Jersey has much of the same. From mountains in the far north, forests, marshland, beaches from top to bottom, White water, placid lakes, and plenty of swamps in the south end. Not bad for one of the smallest states in the country.

Agree it’s great if you live in Vancouver or out eat coast way but if your in the middle it’s a 3-5 day drive out there, if your in the middle like Ontario you got snow and trails are all closed until may

If it makes you feel any better trails in CO are closed anywhere from late may into August pending snow melt...but there are a few trails open year round but not many and I'm not into slip and slide wheeling. But Moab is only like 6 hrs from Denver so I can't complain too much. Need to get down south and explore NM as should be way less crowded and easy to access as well
