Monument Valley has been featured in many forms of media since the 1930s. Director John Ford used the location for a number of his best-known films, and thus, in the words of critic Keith Phipps, "its 13 square kilometers have defined what decades of moviegoers think of when they imagine the American West." Between 1945 and 1967, the southern extent of the Monument Upwarp was mined for uranium, which occurs in scattered areas of the Shinarump Conglomerate; vanadium and copper are associated with uranium in some deposits.

Built on the highest point in the state of NJ, this 220ft obelisk can be seen for miles all around, especially when lighted at night.

There is only one trail in Monument Valley on which tourists are allowed to hike without the supervision of a Navajo guide. The trail travels around West Mitten Butte and goes near a road which leads to nearby Navajo homes. East Mitten Butte is in the distance.

Op het Joods monument staan 50 namen. Dit zijn de namen die bekend waren ten tijde van de oprichting van het monument in 2012. Uit archiefonderzoek door de gemeente Ede de afgelopen jaren is gebleken dat veel meer mensen in Ede zijn opgepakt. Om recht te doen aan deze mensen heeft Stichting Joods Monument Ede, in nauwe samenwerking met de gemeente Ede, besloten het monument aan te passen.Op het huidige monument zal een nieuwe dekplaat komen met alle 183 namen.

 

The Jewish monument lists 50 names. These are the names that were known at the time the monument was erected in 2012. Archive research by the municipality of Ede in recent years has shown that many more people were arrested in Ede. In order to do justice to these people, the Stichting Joods Monument Ede, in close cooperation with the municipality of Ede, decided to adjust the monument. A new cover plate with all 183 names will be placed on the current monument.
