Have you ever dreamed of being in 4 different states at the same time? Now you can, and it doesn’t involve a magic trick. There is only one place in the United States where 4 states intersect in one point and it is located in the Southwest.

The borders of Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and Arizona intersect at one point, also known as the “Four Corners Monument.” While this area is mostly rural, there are many monuments to the Native Americans in the Four Corners Region that you can visit, along with the beautiful Mesa Verde National Park.

If you’re wondering which of the 4 states has control of the monument, the answer is actually none! There are 6 governments that have jurisdiction here, the 4 states along with the Ute Tribe and the Navajo Nation who administer the monument itself.

There are plenty of outdoor adventures to do in the area, including, camping, horseback riding, and hiking. In addition, it’s a great place to learn about the Native American way of life and their history. This unique monument is open year-round, so come take a picture and say you were in 4 states at one time!
