1995 Map of Monument
USGS Topo · Published 1998About this map
The town of Monument sits at the junction of several canyons where the North Fork John Day River and its tributaries carve through the landscape. This 1995 revision reveals a mix of civic infrastructure and remote mountain terrain, featuring a local Cem, a Gaging Station, and a Helipad near the riverbanks. Protective Levee systems follow the water's edge, highlighting the town's relationship with the volatile river. To the north, the Umatilla National Forest occupies the high ground, punctuated by Monument Mountain and its Lookout Tower. Further south, the landscape is defined by family-named canyons and landmarks like Jack of Clubs Creek, Dustin Point, and the steep draws of Hell Canyon. The presence of a Landing Strip and multiple Communications Towers indicates the area's role as a regional hub for forest management and local connectivity in Grant County.
