34th meridian west from Washington information


The partition of the Idaho Territory which gave the meridian its first usage as a boundary

The 34th meridian west from Washington is an archaic meridian based on the Washington Meridian and hence 111°2′48.0″ West of Greenwich.[1] The meridian is most notably used as a boundary for four states. The east-west continental divide of North America crosses the 34th meridian at the tripoint between Idaho, Montana and Wyoming.
