Let's celebrate Canada's mountain West too! I guess I'm not saying this is unique to the US just that it is something that is genuinely worth celebrating. That's actually the question you were asking, what is genuinely good.

There's a lot of bad to focus on. The Rocky Mountains are both gorgeous and worth protecting and the ancestral home of native people that our ancestors murdered in order to claim.

And yet, I think it's cool to actively look for good things, not as a distraction but to try to understand what we want to have more of and what makes something special. Especially with the US feeling unsafe and unstable.
