Everything about Point Udall totally explained
Point Udall is the name of both the easternmost and westernmost points in the
United States, named for two brothers.
St. Croix, Virgin Islands
Point Udall at the east end of
St. Croix in the
U.S. Virgin Islands is the easternmost point in the United States including
territories and
insular areas. It was named for
Stewart Udall,
United States Secretary of the Interior under Presidents
John F. Kennedy and
Lyndon Johnson. A
sundial known as the Millennium Monument was built above Point Udall for the
New Year's celebration in
2000 — it marks the
azimuth of the first U.S. sunrise of that year. From the monument an informal trail of moderate difficulty leads down to the point, composed of uplifted and rotated volcanic rock.
Guam
Point Udall also refers to the westernmost point in the territorial United States, on the Orote Peninsula of
Guam. This point used to be called "Orote Point" until it was re-named "Point Udall" in May 1987. It is named after Stewart Udall's brother,
Mo Udall.
