Located in Monroe in Mountain View Park and erected in honor of those who pioneered the sawmill road from live oak to the sawmill and meadows on the Monroe Mountain.

Note: Lumber was a critical element in early development of this area. The round trip required either one or two days depending on the number of horses used. Each load contained about 2,000 board feet of green lumber and weighed about the same as a modern car.

See other historic markers in the series on this page for SUP Markers.
