Frontier Museum, Monticello, Utah
Created and maintained by the residents of Monticello and San Juan County, the Frontier Museum is housed in an historic barn in downtown Monticello adjacent to the Southeast Utah Welcome Center. The museum features donations from many local residents. Visitors to the area from out of state and out of the country have commented on its charming character and interesting assortment of historic and prehistoric artifacts. The museum offers a glimpse of life as it was lived on the edge of the Great Sage Plain in the last century. Exhibits include early telephones, minerals from the area, and early 20th Century clothing among other items. The barn was an original storage facility for the L.H. Redd Mercantile Company which was sheathed on the outside leaving the original post and beam structure visible on the inside.

The Frontier Museum
The Frontier Museum is housed in a century old barn once used as storage for
the L. H. Redd Mercantile. The barn was moved from its original site and
renovated to house the museum by the Monticello Foundation. The original
post and beam construction is visible inside. Frontier life as it was lived
on the edge of the Great Sage Plain over 100 years ago is on display. A
visit to the museum is a passage through time via the day-to-day items used
by our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. Exhibits include
vintage clothing and household items. Early telephones, relics from ancient
native people, and remains from the Home of Truth are on display. Cowboys,
Indians, outlaws, farmers, and shopkeepers are represented.435-587-3401
FOUR CORNERS MONUMENT
The Navajo Nation cordially welcomes you to one of our most unique landmarks
- The Four Corners. This is the only place in the United States where four
states intersect at one point: Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado. This
location is very remote as you will experience when visiting.
The original marker erected in 1912 was a simple cement pad, but has since
been redone in granite and brass. The Visitor Center is open year round, and
features a Demonstration Center with Navajo artisans. Navajo vendors sell
handmade jewelry, crafts and traditional Navajo foods nearby.
Picnic tables and self-contained restrooms are available. Services and
accommodations are very limited to small cafes, grocery stores and
self-service gasoline stations within a 30 mile radius.
We recommend that you have plenty of water, food, snacks, hand wipes and
extra toiletries when visiting. The area is very remote, no running water,
no electricity, no telephones.
