Which is the westernmost state in the United States?
Correct answer: Alaska
Dee
what about Hawaii?
ryechewarre
what was missed was that the Aleutian islands extend into the Eastern, not western, hemisphere, as is stated.

Player #12285382, the Aleutains extend father west than any Hawaiian island.

there is no point on the continent of South America farther west than Tampa, Florida.

follow the longitude line from the north pole. a line furthest to the west cuts Alaska's islands and not Hawaii. sorry
Player Vincent
u can tell by the picture that the tail of islands is farther west than Hawaii

threeefaze, Hawaii is further west than California, but not as far west as Alaska. The picture gives it away!

Alaska is the farthest North, East and West state in the US, trust me cause I'm from Alaska.
globee
I'm no geography expert, but aren't those other three states on the East Coast?
Barb@71
Dee, It's the Southernmost state
MCA
I guess by the earth being round, it would allow you to reach Alaska if you go west.
Chuck
Hawaii would be correct answer.
Joe
The ONLY western state is the right answer. Wow. I can't win this game.

This a wrong answer! Hawaii is the western most state!

Player Gigi #28446253
bigworm8282, again, veerrry interesting š¤
Player Gigi #28446253
DownwardDiplomat4, maybe not "in", but part of. Neither is Hawaii "in", but definitely part of.
Player Gigi #28446253
Player Gemkat, Really? I will have to look at that oddity!

The Cocibolca lake in Nicaragua, is the only fresh water lake in the world that has sharks!

CyanRambler2570, It is a paradox. At that latitude, the nautical mile around the circle of the Earth are much smaller than the nautical distance along the latitude that passes through Hawaii.
Player johne

Player #18473859

Player Gemkat
I live just south of Erie, PA and had a hard time convincing my husband that NYC was further south than we are.
DownwardDiplomat4
Elizabethbegley, but there not in the U.S.A.
Player #9011389
threeefaze, because of the Aleutian Islands Alaska is farther west
