This is only an idea right now. I am thinking about another road trip to all 50 state low points. This is not as easy as it sounds. It would require 2 flights, 13,000 miles and 250 hours of driving, plus some hiking time. A traveling companion would be good to help with the driving.

8 State low points, so far

Click either the state name at left or the state image in the map below to for high point pictures and trip information. Roll over the same points for state low point information. Source of the elevation data is the US Statistical Abstract. The red points or lines are the low points. I have been to the lowest point of the green states.

Visited 7 states (1 through 7) before 2007.
