Monument Peak (San Bernardino County)
Monument Peak is a summit in the San Bernardino Mountains, of San Bernardino County, California. It lies at an elevation of 5272 feet.
==History==
Monument Peak is the location where the Mohave Indian Trail and the later Old Spanish Trail crossed the crest of the San Bernardino Mountains after ascending from the headwaters of the Mohave River up Sawpit Canyon and descended down the ridge between Cable Canyon and Devils Canyon to the San Bernardino Valley at the mouth of Cajon Pass.
The Garces-Smith Monument is located on the summit on Forest Road 2N49. This marker indicates the path of the Mohave Indian Trail, a centuries old trade route linking the tribes of the Colorado River to those of the Pacific Ocean. It also memorializes two noted early travelers, Father Francisco Garcés, who in 1776 became the first known missionary explorer to travel across San Bernardino County and leave a written record of his experiences and Jedediah Smith, who in 1826, was the first known Anglo-American to use the Mohave Trail. In 1829-30 Santa Fe, New Mexico merchant Antonio Armijo led a trade party of 60 men and 100 mules to California, opening the Old Spanish Trail, following the route pioneered by those two pioneer explorers. A historical marker was placed on the site Sept. 19, 1931, by the San Bernardino County Historical Society.
