Four Corners - Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona


The Four Corners is the only place in the United States where four states (Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado) come together at one place. Here a person can stand in four states at the same time. The unique landmark is managed by the Navajo Nation and is open for visits from the public. Vendors sell handmade jewelry, crafts and traditional foods nearby.  The area surrounding the monument is Native American land, which includes part of New Mexico, Utah, and Arizona and covers some 25,000 square miles. Both the Navajo, or Dine, and Ute people live in the Four Corners area.

Enough said
 Short stop here.  Once the jewelry shopping was finished, we continued on to Bluff, Arizona.
