Guess that State - new game
 

I'll start:

The fourth largest city in this state still has fewer than 20,000 people in it.

What state is it?

North Dakota?

Montana?

Alaska?

Alaska...right? Sitka used to be the fourth largest city there, but only has about 8k people.

nope - more cues...

it is high, dry & lonesome

it is not the "last best place" but its denizens were a bit ticked off that another state got that moniker

Wyoming

I think you got it...

yup - the cowboy state


Next?

Which has the largest county in terms of sq. miles

I think Alaska has counties now, so...

Alaska? Alaska will now be my answer for all of these.

Harney County in Oregon. Also the least populated!

Trick question, sort of. I believe it's the City and County of Honolulu; it goes to Guam. Largest in the continental US? San Bernardino County, CA

Yup

6 largest counties in the US

1 Unorganized Borough, Alaska 330,074.96 square miles
2 North Slope Borough, Alaska 88,817.12 square miles
3 Northwest Arctic Borough, Alaska 35,898.34 square miles
4 Matanuska-Susitna Borough, Alaska 24,681.54 square miles
5 Lake and Peninsula Borough, Alaska 23,781.96 square miles
6 San Bernardino County, California 20,105.50 square miles

I was wrong. The largest Oregon county by size is Harney County, which is 10,135 square miles. Not the US.

D'oh!

Oops! But that's why the title of the thread begins with "Guess", not "Google this".

Maine

What is the most crowded state?

It's Alaska - because some of it's islands cross over the 180 degree meridian and are therefore in the eastern hemisphere - which is one of the reasons the international date line zig - zag's around the islands.

It's also the most westerly and northerly (obvious).

Hawaii is the most southerly.

Alaska, the winner from down under

I'm vindicated see post #13& 14 its a borough not a county!SmileWavy

In what state is the Corn Palace located?

Nebraska is the most obvious choice.
