Cimarron Principal Meridian
Oklahoma
(Clayton, NM)
The Cimarron Meridian was the last monument made in
the United States. According to Albert White they apparently had
difficulty finding the correct spot and located it 3 times.
Note that the Texas border road is south of the base line of the
original Cimarron monument
The upper pin is the Cimarron Meridian, the lower is the Texas state line
and the western is a 1906 attempt to locate the PM properly. Clayton, NM is
approx 9 miles SW of here on RT 56.
