#1 Roumania's got mountains without roads too, and less wacko-Muzzie kidnappers (they mostly stick to the old mafia style kidnappings.)

#2 ...You know, the Russians make a mint off of selling MiG-25 and -31 rides, they should offer 'Terrorist Hunting In Chechnya' packages...now THAT would be tourism.

#4 Colorado's got mountains, and I don't have to endure a long jet ride, hassles with airport security and customs, a different language, and poor food. Heck, I might even stray into nearby Utah!

#5 Easy OP...there's them thar fundumetalists in Utah. Might want to think twice afore you stray into their patch. Now they ain't violent, but before you know it they'll have you married up with a whole passle of kids underfoot. I seen it and it ain't pretty. No sir, not pretty at all.

#7 Besides if you want spooky and interesting, the Carpathian Mountians and Transylvania are the way to go. A historical bonus is that you get to hang out in Vlad Tepisc's old stomping grounds : you may know him as the historical Dracula, or his other name, Vlad the Impaler.
He seemed to have NO issues with local Muslims rioting in his towns, back in the days.
