Twelve Mile Circle – An Appreciation of Unusual Places

Introduction and Purpose

Welcome to the Twelve Mile Circle!

This site highlights unusual places on maps that just don’t seem to make sense.  These may include state highpoints, non-contiguous boundaries, latitude/longitude confluences, and other trivial geographic points.

This serves as a companion to my travel pages. Over there I detail some of my actual trips to Strange Geography locations. In the meantime, I found so many others places that I want to see someday. I may never get the chance although I still want to talk about them.

You deserve to learn about those now instead of waiting and hoping that I have an opportunity to conduct a site visit. You can see all of the article at the Complete Index.
