America the Beautiful! We often write about the beauty of places we visit across the globe, but in reality the United States are beautiful in their own right. This week’s poll asks you to do the impossible: Choose the most beautiful state in America.
Lots of tough choices here, and in order to get you into the spirit I have found photos that best represent my knowledge of the beauty contained in each state listed. Not all states made the cut, but if you feel strongly about having another state listed, you can vote for an “other” option and list your state. You can also plead the case for your favorite state in the comments.
I plan to run this poll until there are enough responses to declare a definitive “most beautiful state in America” winner. This one is for all of the marbles.

I just tried to vote 3 times for 1 state and it only counted 1 vote. Foiled by technology! :)

No option to vote for WV? I encourage you to check out Dolly Sods, Blackwater Falls, Seneca Rocks, the New River Gorge or any of a dozen other locations in Wild and Wonderful West Virginia.

With all the financial stress these years, I really hope all of you will give it a chance. 8OZh

What about Maine? Not just the coastline, either. The state is full of natural beauty.

Good addition

Truthfully, each state has something beautiful to offer to the point that I don’t think there is a most beautiful state. The great part is that each state’s gifts are so different from the others that they are all worth seeing. I have heard so many people say that they want to travel to other countries, “but there are so many things I want to see in the U.S. first.”
