Prettiest/ Most spectacular thing you have seen in the outdoors.

For me in would have to be seeing a red fox squirrel hunting. It looked so graceful. Or a group of cupping mallards gets me every time.

Same here, except I was deer hunting sitting on the ground. It was pretty cool.

What does a red fox squirrel hunt?

Grand Canyon... and it's not all that close for me. Completely overwhelming.

I was fishing Lake Verrett this Saturday, running my boat in the lake along the cypress trees and a Bald Eagle circled ahead and dove down grabbed a fish about 20 feet from my boat. It was pretty awesome.
I'm sure I'll think of something else later.

Had a turkey perch on a branch directly above my head and proceed to make all kind of noise (this was during deer season, would never happen during turkey season 
). I've never been that close to a live wild turkey before. Also, I love to watch deer in the wild. They are so graceful... just before I choot them.

My car, after climbing the Regular route up the Fairview Dome. Started at sunrise and got back to the rig after dark. I'm not a praying man, but I'm pretty sure I made a few deals with the spaghetti monster to get back alive.
Climbing partner was less than no help so I had to do it by myself, no topo (since he knew the way...pfft). Pretty sure I made about 50 life saving decisions, all but about 6 were luck. Those 6 were the times I waited on the party behind us because there was no way I could make a call.
The descent ropes didn't even make it to the ground. Just rapped off of the end of them. I think I cried when we got to the car, a bloody pulp.

- Sitting on top of a mountain in the Gila Wilderness Area as the sunset, nobody within miles of me, listening to about 10 gobblers sound off all around me.
- Any cold, frosted morning, while sitting in my climber 30' feet up a huge oak, over looking a large clear cut.
- Glacier National Park. The entire place.
- Watching the sunrise on top of the mountain overlooking Aspen, with my new wife sitting by my side.
- Sitting on the edge of a lush, green field, with spring flowers in full bloom, watching a mature Tom strut and dance in front of me, as the spring breeze warms my face.
...and many, many more memories.

Hawaii had some pretty spectacular viewings.

6 turkeys in full strut cutting me off every time I called in a hardwood bottom in Woodville 4 years ago

Too many to decide from.

While it wasn't the prettiest, I watched a tornado touch down outside our house and move across basically our back pasture. The thing was massive and it was close enough I could actually see tree's/branches/rocks all kinds of stuff getting sucked up into it.

Wood ducks being wood ducks.
Shark feeding frenzy by Breton islands.
Anytime I see the sunrise I think it's awesome.

For me the Grand Canyon is tied with watching 2' of fresh snow fall in one day on top of Snowshoe Mountain, it was breathtaking

Marlin greyhounding in rough seas
Marlin lit up boatside
Sunset/sunrise out in the canyon with no one else around
Shotgun start at a big marlin tournament (Emerald Coast in Destin)
Winter time sunsets out in the marsh
Mallards working a small pothole
Big buck chasing does during the rut
ETA: glowing sargassum at night in the wake of a sportfisher
Just a few off the top of my head

Lost Man Lake Colorado
Huge Gobbler strutting in front of me a 5 yards. It was on a Sunday in Litchfield County, CT and you can't hunt on Sunday there. I just went out with my call.
Sunrise at Mt. Laguna, CA
Windriver Range, Wyoming
Mountain goats above Independence pass Colorado
Alligator crossing road with a slough on both sides. I was set up on a early morning Gobbler.
This guy had his head in the slough on one side and his tail in the water on the other side of the road. Biggest Gator I've ever seen. Tensas Parish.
December Swells at Blacks....San Diego
Impossible to share them all.

I was in a sailboat in the middle of the gulf when a whale jumped right behind the boat.
