A minor goegrafic puculiarity is the true south point of USA. We (me and Tricia) had previous visited the southernmost point in continental USA, so when the chance presented itself to visit the southermost point in all of USA we could not say no...
South point on Big Island (Hawai'i) is perched on cliffs extending towards the south of the vast pacific...
It is a windswept area at which a current as well as a ruin of an old wind farm can be found. The wrecks of the old farm from 2007 is a scary sight of "clean energy". but the much more powerful new wind power plants are a welcome addition to a hard energy equation at a remote location such as Hawai'i. And remote is true it is the most remote location to any continent in the world in fact...
The south point itself is located along cliffs which one can jump from (40 ft high) into pristine turquoise waters.
It's quite doubtful I would do both the continental and overall NORTHERN points of USA, but the 2 southern points of US was surely a pleasure to visit...
Elevation: 40 ft (12 m)

Potential Difficulties: GPS-directions, bad navigation.
