A few weeks ago, friends and I were talking about how far north/east/south/west we’d each travelled. I started plotting places on a map to figure out my extremes, then continued until I had a relatively* exhaustive map and started adding places I’d like to go.
My NESW extremes (as measured from San Francisco) are:
- North = Gullfoss, Iceland (64° 19′ 34″ N)
- East = Dollo Ado, Ethiopia (41° 25′ 0″ E)
- South = Dollo Ado, Ethiopia (4° 25′ 0″ N)
- West = Honolulu, USA (157° 49′ 34″ W)
Legend:
* Major-metropolitan areas are collapsed to a single city, I still need to fill out California, and I’ve not included every city/town/village I’ve spent time in in Ontario or stopped in while driving the Trans-Canada Highway. (That would make for a rather long (and tedious) list. Assume most of Eastern Ontario and the larger places between Sydney, Nova Scotia and Edmonton, Alberta along the TCH.) I’ve also spent a night in a small ski-town in Austria whose name I don’t remember.
