Four Corners

597 NM-597, Teec Nos Pos, AZ 86514, USA

This spot is only significant because of arbitrary political boundaries, but it still draws tourists wanting to see the only place in the United States where four states meet. Desolate as it is—aside from the monument that stands at the intersection of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah—Four Corners is worth the visit if you happen to be passing through on Highway 160. Just know that the monument and marker are about a third of a mile further east than they would be if the borders had been set with modern surveying equipment.

This fun looking dad and mom have five kids in four states: baby sister is sitting on the very juncture of Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico. I was driving to Flagstaff and had to make the obligatory turnoff to this monument, admission three dollars. There was a picnic table where I sat and ate the sandwich and peach the folks at Cresto Ranch Tents had packed for me before I left Colorado. Some local Navaho artisans sell various crafts at booths around the place. I collect sew-on souvenir patches for my duffel bag. I found one for five bucks and was good to go.
