Sorry to disappoint you Michael but unfortunately the NE corner of Colorado
is not a quadricounty point. The county line between Kieth Co, Ne and
Perkins
Co, Ne intersects the Deuel Co, Ne line about 500 ft. north of the Colorado
corner.
So it's two tri-points, one consisting of these three counties and the other
is
composed of Sedgwick Co. CO with Duel and Perkins NE.
Thus far I have identified 18 quadricounty points on State lines and one on
the Canadian border. Someday I'll get the quadricounty point project done.
