The United States happens to exist on one stunning piece of land. Perhaps I'm biased, but it is my personal opinion that Arizona makes this place appear even more beautiful, thanks to our diverse and colorful landscapes.

A smooth, sandstone slot canyon in a stunning color palette? I can think of few better ways to start off this list.
