Your family has made plans to spend two weeks in the Four Corners area of the United States, where Colorado, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona meet on the land of the Navajo Nation. But, not everyone is excited about this National Monument designation.
Some local residents are thrilled, many are angry.
Thirty years ago it was silver and gold, but more recently coal. After a hearty chuck wagon meal and a good nights rest, your family is ready to begin your two week trip, exploring the the National Park facilities as you circle the Four Corners of the magnificent South West. You head south from Durango in the morning to visit Aztec Ruins National Monument, just over the border, into New Mexico. Continuing south you spend the night in Chaco Canyon National Historic Park, NM before eventually heading south. Chris sees lots of jeeps, RUV's. and a variety of assorted vehicles zipping all over the country side.
