I want to go
Book a flight to Albuquerque New Mexico and rent a car and drive up thru Santa Fe, Taos and places like Eagles Nest and Angel Fire. Or, take a flight to Spokane Washington and drive to Libby Montana and all the way up to Kalispell MT and visit Glacier National Park then take the "Road to the Sun."
Before my wife and I were married we took a trip to Alberta Canada and did a side trip to Banff and Lake Louise in the Canadian Rockies. One word...........Awesome!
On a side note, Santa Fe New Mexico is 7000 feet above sea level..............Mt. Washington NH is 6288 feet above Sea level. After Santa Fe, it's all uphill from there.
