Is It Worth Going to Four Corners National Monument?

#FourCorners #ExploreFourCorners #FourCornersExperience Is the Four Corners Monument in the Wrong Place? Does It Cost To Visit the Four Corners Monument? What Is the History of the Four Corners Monument? The Four Corners National Monument is the only place where four states meet. Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah all come together in what is called a quadripoint. Well, that’s exactly where the excitement ends! Ever since I heard about this place in elementary school, I thought it would be so cool to visit someday. So, when I recently traveled from Page, Arizona to Durango, Colorado, I decided to stop and record a quick video. While my YouTube channel typically highlights exciting places to visit, this video is actually the exact opposite. Today, I’ve got a list of reasons why you probably do NOT want to visit this place: 1. Technically, it’s not even in the right location. The surveyors were a little off when they set the marker in 1875. The U.S. Geodetic Survey states that the quadripoint is 1,807 feet east of where modern surveying technology would place it. In 1919, New Mexico sued Colorado to correct this border discrepancy. But, in 1925, the Supreme Court ruled that the markers placed during the initial surveys were the actual borders, even if the markers were off in some locations. This includes the Four Corners Monument. Where the marker is now…is accepted. Once it's adopted by the states, which it has been, the numerical errors are irrelevant. It becomes the legal definition of the Four Corners. So, when you stand on the monument, you're not technically at the intersection of the four states, but legally you ARE on the quadripoint! 2. It costs $8 to get in, which is exactly $8 too much! 3. The restrooms are old, dirty, and disgusting. 4. The parking lot is both muddy and bumpy. I’d be fine paying $8 to get in…if the facilities were even remotely maintained. On a brighter note, my very next video will be at Mesa Verde National Park in Colorado. I was able to capture a ton of amazing footage. So, be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel and keep an eye open for that video. Thanks for watching. We’ll see you next time!
