Alaska is the northernmost point in the continental United States. Minnesota is the northernmost point in the contiguous United States.

C. Minnesota Northern Angle is furthest north in the continental US.  As a matter of fact, the only way to get to it by land is to drive into Canada.

This is funny.  All of these people answering Maine.  Seattle, WA is further north than all of Maine.
