I've found it quite fast to find the links through the United States article :P

paav, I end up going through the US for everything. It's just always my first idea of how to link something together. I wonder if there's another similarly highly-linked node that's better.

Sick and awake again. Lots of five-steppers but no fours yet.

I believe I have a four...depending on how you count! I take it you don't count the starting page/link?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FA_Premier_League_Manager_of_the_Month
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/October_20
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June_30
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yosemite_Valley
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud%27s_Rest

To explain the links:

On the FA Premier... theres a link to October 20th. On that page there is a calendar at the bottom. June 30th is the day Abraham Lincoln grants Yosemite Valley to California for "public use, resort and recreation." Then from Yosemite Valley you can find your way to Cloud's Rest. Bish, bash, bosh!
