∙ 15y agoOh-- this kind of question is always contraversial-- Some are of the opinion (as am I) that the westernmost point of the US is the west coast of Amatignak Island in the Aleutians. This is NOT the farthest point out in the Aleutians, but the farthest point before crossing 180 degrees longitude. Once you cross this longitude, you are in the eastern hemisphere. The question does say: "What is the westernmost point"... not "How far can you travel in a westerly direction".The easternmost point of the US would then be Semisopochnoi Island, across the Amchitka Pass from Amatignak, and to the north. It is the farthest east you can go (following a long break after leaving Maine) before entering the western hemisphere.
