Yes. Just as with any other continent, in 9 months you’ll miss all sorts of great places and activities. I’ve spent a total of 18 months or so in Africa and have barely scratched the surface; about the same in Latin America and have barely begun. I’ve lived in the US and Canada my whole life and have spent more than 5 full time years wandering around by various means here. It’s not as easy to find new places as it used to be, but there’s still a lot that is fresh and interesting.
My suggestion would be to look for the places that are unique to North America, i.e., not found elsewhere. Lots of room for differing opinions about what qualifies—and for different interests—but that does tend to reduce possibilities and make planning easier. In the end, 9 months will never be enough—nor will two years, or four, so you’ll either return for more at some point or spend the rest of your life listening to people tell you about all the stuff you should have done instead.
