Stand in four states simultaneously at this unique geographic marker where Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico meet. The remote location in Navajo Nation territory makes for a scenic desert drive, and you can buy authentic Native American crafts from local vendors. Bring water and snacks as services are limited in this beautiful but isolated area.

βBy the time we arrived at the Four Corners we were ready to eat! We had packed our own lunch and taken it with us that day, so we headed straight for the picnic area thatβs off to the right just after you pass through the entrance station. The Four Corners Monument is kind of far from any towns with restaurants or lodging. [...] Also, at the Four Corners Monument there are a few stalls that sell food like Fry Bread and Navajo Tacos. I remember that I had Fry Bread the last time I went, (I rarely pass up Fry Bread!) but this time we were saving our appetites for dinner, so I had to pass.β
βWhat doesnβt need to go on your bucket list is the four corners monument itself. Thankfully we arrived early and still in the off-season, so we were able to snap a few pictures almost immediately. Chad took control of the camera for our three-photo limit, and we full-filled a year-long dream of getting so mad at each other we resorted to fists, all while being in completely different states.β
βThis makes for some interesting photos, especially for kids who can have appendages in four states at one time (a leg in Arizona, a leg in New Mexico, a hand in Colorado, a hand in Utah for example). We also took a family photo with each of us standing in a different state. I was very pleased to see that visitors to the attraction made a nice orderly line so that everyone could get their picture taken at the intersection of the states.β
