The Olympic Rainforest in Washington is very nice. Also the Cascades, same area. If you want rocks and trees and water then it's hard to find bigger trees growing out of bigger rocks with more water. If you're roadtripping from the east you'll see the Dakotas (30 minutes worth of beautiful vistas condensed into eight hours), Wyoming (same shit plus hills, take the detour to Yellowstone), the Rockies (they really are quite rocky, it's cool), and eastern Washington (a cool grassy desert, if you're not sick of grass by now). Coming from the south, if you stay on the east side of those states, there's a lot of cool deserts, redwood forests, and mountains with old mining towns (but I would be very worried about a trans person trying to travel eastern Oregon).
Also would recommend New Zealand in general, just an incredibly varied countryside full of very nice people. If you're going try to get a flight with Hawaiian Air - they've jerryrigged a lot of their flight tables so that all the flights across the Pacific are cheaper if you accept a day-long layover. Which, being in Hawaii, is not much of a burden.
