…More Than One Route.

"There's an ongoing debate among archaeologists as to which route the first settlers of North America took to reach the continent. Some say these migrants travelled along an interior passage between two massive ice sheets, while others say they traversed along a coastal route. New research suggests both interpretations are correct, and that multiple pathways into North America existed by the end of the last Ice Age.

Several conflicting theories currently describe the peopling of Americas, of which two are vastly more plausible than the others, according to new research published today in Science Advances. These two theories include the conventionally argued, but often maligned, Ice Free Corridor route, in which the first migrants crossed over from Beringia into the interior of Alaska, and then into the high plains of North America by venturing through two massive ice sheets around 15,500 to 13,500 years ago. The other is a newer hypothesis known as the North Pacific Coast route, also called the Kelp Highway Hypothesis, in which America's first settlers arrived by hugging the coastline along southern Beringia and North America's west coast, no earlier than about 17,000 years ago…."

They have it wrong. The Americas are where aliens used to dump long term abductees that they were done with. The apparent migration patterns are just a result of them saying 'too many over here, how about dropping the next batch over there. '
