Phil's log

This is the only place in the United States where four states come together at one place: Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado. Here a person can stand in all four states at one time. The Four Corners Monument, located at an elevation of 5,000 feet (1,524 m) above sea level, makes for a perfect year round visit. The monument is a marker erected in 1912. The original marker was a cement pad. Today the monument is made of granite, bronze disc, and colored concrete with inserted metal plates of the great seal from each of the four states and includes the inscription Four States Here Meet In Freedom Under God. The monument stands on a tiny corner of each state.
