I've been to most of them on the list, but not with the idea of backpacking. Another addition to your list might be the Windriver Range in Wyoming. I've heard it's pretty amazing, but haven't been.

I've canoed into the Yellowstone backcountry, but haven't backpacked. It was an amazing canoe trip.

Shoshone Lake. We put in at Lewis Lake, canoed up the channel, and ended up at Shoshone.

If you include one on the east, it should be the Appalachian Trail
