New Hampshire has about 10 miles of coastline between Massachusetts and Maine.

It’s almost impossibly to see on physical maps.

In each scenario Colorado is 3 states away from Louisiana, not 2.

In the OP, number of states away referred to the number of states between Louisiana and Colorado.

You can do that 3 different ways
LA->AR->OK->CO
LA->TX->OK->CO
LA->TX->NM->CO


Actually you can get to Colorado from Louisiana, crossing only one state.


Take a boat from NOLA through the Panama Canal, up the Gulf of California, then up the Colorado River to Arizona. Cross Arizona, then step carefully across Four Corners into Colorado.
