    Thanks Sarah, Went there 50-60 years ago when it was just the circle and none of the surroundings that are there now! Wow!

    Grew up in the 4 corners area. I can think on 1000 things locally that I would rather do. But if you have to experience the novelty of it, more power to you.

    There is something hopeful about driving down the high way with blue Sky's and big billowing clouds. Thank you for a chance to enjoy the natural, good world we'll sleep well tonight.

    People are on camera 🎥 pretty much from the time they leave their driveways in the morning until they return home and everything in between wether they know it or not and even then,there’s Google Earth so if you don’t want to be on camera/surveillance,hide under a rock🪨!! And in most states,there is NO expectation of privacy in a public setting but yet,when people see you with a camera,they freak!! Oblivious of the fact that unless you’re inside your home/bathroom,you’re on candid camera! That includes ALL municipalities,federal buildings,post offices,and even private entities,Home Depot,Lowes,Walmart right down to your local grocery store ect.…there are eyes in the skies,EVERYWHERE and yet,many will have a meltdown because you have a camera in your hand! SMDH🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️!!! Keep your amazing videos coming Jeepsy and thank you for allowing me to tag along on your adventures!!👍✌️😎

    Thanks for the fuel report.
    Seriously though, there are many sites in the west to see. I was 8 when Mom took us to the Four Corner's region. Then it was just a concrete marker with metal road barriers. I remember a Native Trading Post near by. There truly is Enchantment, just tune into it.

    Hello, new sub here and I have been enjoying your adventures! I’m not originally from GA but lived there for several years and it’s a very special place. This also looks like a very beautiful and spiritual spot. I know what you mean about the crowds though, I like to enjoy these kinda places in peace and quiet. Safe travels to you and little Miss Georgia.

    The marker is around 1,800 ft. east of where it was actually intended. -- A basic tenet of boundary surveying is that once a monument has been established and accepted by the parties involved (in the case of the Four Corners monument, the parties were the four territories and the U.S. Congress), the location of the physical monument is the ultimate authority in delineating a boundary. So it became, and still is, the exact legal boundary marker. Previous technical geodetic details are absolutely moot. All four state boundaries lead directly to it. So yes, you got to be in four states at once for real.

    What a beautiful country we have that we stole from the Indians. It was nice to see that you were in four states at once. Mother Nature sure does create some beautiful areas. To bad it was to crowded with people since they couldn’t go to Lake Meade or Lake Powell because of the drought and lake levels.

    A large herd of humans is called a

      @@doneown503 Well..I guess the truth is I just listened to a youtube video years about saying it's off by 1800 feet or something like that and it went into the history of surveying. But, now I see a NOAA webpage saying the 4 corners is perfect where it is! It was the history of defining state boundries I found interesting.
