Four Corners Monument
Photos
March 2000
This is the only place in the United States marking the common corner of four states - Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah. The four corners monument was established and perpetuated by U.S. Government Surveyors and Astronomers beginning in 1868. Surveyors Darling, Robbins, Reeves, and Carpenter surveyed the boundary lines between the states.
Hwy 597 leads to the Four Corners Monument from US Hwy 160 in New Mexico. Although this portion of US Hwy 160 is in New Mexico, it can only be accessed from Arizona or Colorado and not New Mexico.
