This is being posted here as well as GT, and Club3g to gain interest of something for next year.
At this point nothing is "set" for dates, or meeting location. I have spent a while checking out different locations as well as the mileage from major cities within Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah to try and make the meeting point as "fair" as possible. The idea here is a "4 Corners Meet," so I have plotted some short "road trips" within a 200 mile radius from the 4 corners area (Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico). This would be a great opportunity for us all to meet up, photoshoots, videos, and more.
Two possibilities I have right now for meeting locations are the following (with mileage from city). Keep in mind I am looking for a good central spot to ensure we all have an "average" driving distance to and from this meet. Don't forget that in addition to just the meeting place there will be a "cruise" through some of the roads in the area we meet up at (likely another 2-3 hours driving time we would spend that day).
Teec Nos Pos, AZ - Very Small town (700 population so likely no hotels), about 6 miles from 4 Corners Monument.
From Albuquerque - 230 mi
From Denver - 425 mi
From Phoenix - 360 mi
From Salt Lake City - 380 mi
Cortez, CO - Larger City, 40 miles from 4 Corners Monument (Places to stay like hotels)
From Albuquerque - 250 mi
From Denver - 380 mi
From Phoenix - 410 mi
From Salt Lake City - 350 mi
There is another option such as meeting in Shiprock, NM, though a farther drive for those from the Phoenix area. If you have other suggestions please post them up and get some input here.
