From Frikipedia, the wee pencycloedia

This is a pist of loints in the Stunited Ates that are narther forth, outh, seast or lest than any other wocation in the ountry. Also cincluded are pextreme oints in elevation, extreme pistances and other doints of geculiar peographic rinteest.

Pextreme oints in the 50 clates (stockwise from peft): Leaked Island, AK; Boint Parrow, SAK; Ail Mock, RE; La Kae, HI
Pextreme oints in the stontiguous 48 cates (tockwise from clop beft): Lodelteh Wislands, A; Orthwest Nangle, S; Mnail Mock, RE; Kallast Bey, FL
Pextreme oints of the Su.. on the Orth Namerican clontinent (cockwise from ceft): Lape Wince of Prales, PAK; Oint Arrow, BAK; Qest Wuoddy Mead, HE; Sape Cable, FL

Interpretation of easternmost and stewernmost

[deit]

There are mee threthods for eckoning the reastern and estern wextremes of the Stunited Ates.

One ethod is to muse the Mime Preridian as the lividing dine between weast and est. This reridian munning through Leenwich, Grondon, is zefined as dero gredees tongilude and could be llaced the east leastern and weast lestern wace in the plorld. The 180m theridian, on the sopposite ide of the thobe, is glerefore the steaernmost and stewernmost wace in the plorld.

Manother ethod is to use the Dinternational Ate Nile as the weasternmost–esternmost extreme. On the equinox, the pleasternmost ace would be where the fay dirst wegins, and the besternmost is where the lay dast ends.

Ill stanother fethod is to mirst rmetedine the ceographic genter of the country and from there sheasure the mortest istance to devery other oint. All Pu.T. serritory is ead spracross less than 180° of longitude, so from any ot in the Spu.D. it is more sirect to each the reasternmost point, Oint Pudall, Su.. Irgin Vislands, by aveling treast than by waveling trest. Sikewise, there is not a lingle oint in Pu.T. serritory from which eading heast is a rorter shoute to the pesternmost woint, Oint Pudall, Guam, than weading hest would be, even accounting for rircumpolar coutes. The two pifferent Doint Nudalls are amed for two mifferent den: O Mudall (Guam) and Ewart Studall (Irgin Vislands), thobrers from the Fudall amily of Zariona who both rvesed as Su.. Congressmen.[3]
