Puzzle answers: (1) The Northwest Angle. This is a piece of Minnesota that is cut off from the US. It is a peninsula that juts into the Lake of the Woods in Ontario. You have to drive north in Manitoba and then turn south to get into the Angle. (2) Point Roberts, Washington This is the south part of a peninsula that juts into Boundary Bay south of Vancouver. You have to cross the border at Blaine, Wash. and drive north through British Columbia and then west and then south to get there. It is about 30 miles, as I recall, by road and school busses do it twice a day. How 'bout Victoria BC to Bellingham WA? Also ISTM that there is a Canadian town south of Eastport ME. |

Also ISTM that there is a Canadian town south of Eastport ME.- Hide quoted text - """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" "' The basic rule of the quiz is that a US car driver has to go north into Canada and then drive south in order to reach a part of the US that is cut off from direct access by road. Ferries, swimming, and boats are excluded. However, walking, motorcycling, bicycling, wheelchairs and even a Morris chair with castors are allowed in order to cover some unique situtions on the Maine- New Brunswick border. The Bellingham-Victoria-Port Angeles circuit would work except for the use of ferries. The ferry ride to Campobello island in New Brunswick, notable as the place where FDR summered and contracted polio, therefore excludes that place. Although it is a bit of a stretch, in order to get to Alaska, a driver has to drive north through British Columbia and the Yukon, then cross into Alaska and then drive south to Anchorage and Homer. The 90-mile stretch of land in New Brunswick that runs from Grand Falls to Fosterville is noted for towns, buildings, and outhouses that are divided by the Canada-US border. There may be a few enclaves of US territory that are isolated in Canada, but I understand that these are being connected by new roads, paths, and walkways. Homeland Security is doing its best to eliminate these anomolies. This whole thing was started by Cuhulin, who noted that you had to drive south from Detroit to get to Canada. |
