The Four Corners is a region of the United States consisting of the southwestern corner of Colorado, southeastern corner of Utah, northeastern corner of Arizona, and northwestern corner of New Mexico. The Four Corners area is named after the quadripoint where the boundaries of the four states meet, where the Four Corners Monument is located. It is the only location in the United States where four states meet. Most of the Four Corners region belongs to semi-autonomous Native American nations, the largest of which is the Navajo Nation, followed by Hopi, Ute, and Zuni tribal reserves and nations. The Four Corners region is part of a larger region known as the Colorado Plateau and is mostly rural, rugged, and arid. In addition to the monument, commonly visited areas within Four Corners include Monument Valley, Mesa Verde National Park, Chaco Canyon, and Canyon de Chelly National Monument. The most populous city in the Four Corners region is Farmington, New Mexico, followed by Durango, Colorado.
After spending the night at Goosenecks State Park we visit Monument Valley. Then continue towards Lake Powell.
IMPORTANT INACCURACIES BELOW! Documentary I made on the Four Corners region. I went to/covered these places: - Antelope Canyon - Monument Valley - Mesa Verde National Park - Four Corners Monument - Chaco Culture National Historic Park (Chaco Canyon) - Taos Pueblo - Ranchos de Taos - Bandelier National Monument - Acoma Pueblo - El Morro National Monument - Zuni Pueblo - Petrified Forest National Park and Painted Desert area - Grand Canyon There were some mistakes, inaccuracies, and missed details I had because of various production goofs: - I talk about frybread at the Four Corners Monument. This was before I actually approached the frybread stand there, which is quite decrepit. I would recommend instead getting frybread at Taos Pueblo, which has a very pleasant and friendly frybread vend...
We drive on Utah State Route 128 to visit Arches National Park and hike the Delicate Arch trail. We briefly pass by Moab to buy supplies and spend the night at Cortez, Colorado.

We begin our journey back to Denver, enjoying the unique beauty of Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef National Park, and Goblin Valley, where we spend the night. Watch until the end for an easter egg.

And they're top of the list for the big game hunters with deep pockets who travel to Africa to hunt and kill. "It's all about the size. The bigger the horns, the bigger the animal, the better it is." Taxidermist For $22,000, you can shoot a lion, $120,000 will get you a rhinoceros. Some safari hunts even let you choose the size and colour of the animal, right out of a catalogue. "A lot of hunters are collectors, they've hunted everything, now they want to add something new, something exciting... It's like a dress, no woman likes to wear the same dress for three years. They like to change." Game Breeder Business is booming. "It's a huge business. A lot of farmers are leaving cattle-b...

Extravaganza: A spectacular display of Cesky Krumlov. Located in the Czech Republic, Česky Krumlov is a unique and extraordinary city and was first settled in the fifteenth century B.C.Each nook and cranny of this unique gem surprises with something new to see and provides a wonderful insight into the history of Bohemia. For nearly three hundred years, and up until the beginning of the seventeenth century Bohemian Krummau was ruled by the Lords Of Rosenberg. It was a time of much prosperity that in turn gave rise to many new and magnificent buildings in the centre of the town. In 1992 it was designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site and since then it has shined out in all of its former glory. Most of the restoration work on the town’s ancient dwelling houses, churches and monastery com...
Forced marriage in Australia Four Corners What happens when young, educated, Australian-born girls are forced into unwanted marriages - often with relatives overseas? Samia was just seventeen when her father announced he was taking her on a holiday overseas. But this was a holiday with a difference. Back in the family's village in rural Pakistan, Samia watched in horror as the local Imam walked in ready to conduct her marriage to her first cousin - without her consent. With pressure from her extended family, she was given papers to sign and threatened. Returning to Australia, Samia sought help from local religious authorities in Sydney - but they ignored her and told her to accept the marriage. For the first time young women, the victims of forced marriages, are speaking out - without ...

I remember her in the trailer at night
With her hair all wet and black and rolled up tight
With the ribbons around her fingers
Waiting for her hair
Like the visions of a dreamer
A curling through the air
I remember her blue kimono in the moonlight
Drifting across her breast in the moonlight
And I cupped her in my hands
Just like two rainbows
While she kissed me upon the mouth... of Colorado
Ahhh Colorado
Affectionado
Out of Texas
Yeah down to Mexico up San Diego
California
Arizonia
Yeah to 1 2 3 4 corners of... Colorado
And I remember her anger anchored on the night of sailing
Cause the captain was drunk with a Gypsy bitch on the railing
And with a sigh she cried
Beneath that bastards' boom
But her mast it slashed... like a dagger through the Spanish moon
An I remember her dark deck dancing on a wild new sea
And the moan she groaned rolling from under me
A Spanish bride
Blazing before the dawn
With her back on Madrid... and her belly on Tenochtitlan
Ahhh Colorado
Affectionado
Out of Texas
Yeah down to Mexico
Up San Diego
California
Arizonia
and 1, 2, 3, 4 corners of Colorado
