Millions miss the mark @ Four Corners Monument

For all those people who have taken pictures with each of their limbs in the four states (Colorado, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico), here is a news flash – you need to go back and retake your photograph. And this time travel 2.5 miles north east of your previous location!

The four corners location was decreed by the U.S. Congress to be located at 37.0 N,109.0W. But errors in the survey done in 1868, located the four corners point wrongly at what is actually 36.998988N,109.045186W.
