Summer Vacation (Posted on 2003-10-22) Difficulty: 2 of 5
Ted is a world traveller. This summer, however, he decided to see the good old U.S.A.

On his vacation he went to the northernmost, southermost, easternmost and westernmost points in the U.S. (not necessarily in that order).

He did it without ever crossing a landborder between states and only leaving U.S. controlled territory once.

How did he do it?

Northernmost : Point Burrow, Alaska--------(71°23'N 156°29'W)
Southernmost : Ka Lae, Hawaii---------------(18°55'N 155°41'W)
Easternmost : West Quoddy Head, Maine-----(44°49'N 66°57'W)
Westernmost : Cape Wrangell, Alaska-------(52°55'N 172°27'E)

I'm not really sure how to get from Alaska to Hawaii to Maine with only leaving US territory once. Maybe there is a path from Alaska to Hawaii that remains in US territory or from Hawaii to the contential US?
