Alaska beats Montana. There are so many more categories we could add but Alaska is pretty much always the answer.

Not hard to see why. Alaska is the only state more big Sky country than Montana. The Dakota's are also good at beating Montana.

Everything's bigger in Texas, at least compared to Montana.

Ugh. I was naming the darn capitals in that one question--and wondering why none of them worked (SMH).

The 49th Parallel border between the US and Canada is NOT a straight line. Washington goes slightly farther north than Montana and should be an acceptable answer for "Northernmost point in the continental U.S."

This Wikipedia page has a good visual of the border's irregularities.

Yes, I know this is a nitpick, but still.

Interesting. Washington goes almost 500' farther north. That's a miniscule technicality, though.

Northwest Angle in Minnesota is the Northern most point in the lower 48.

The rank should be 4 instead of 5 for "Highest alcohol consumption per capita". There are only three answers listed.
