Monument Muni sits in Monument, Oregon at 2,323 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 14/32 is 2,104 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the normal pattern reference at 3,323 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The airport is in a higher-elevation part of eastern Oregon, so performance planning matters. Winter access can also be an issue because the field is intermittently closed due to snow.

There are no on-field FBOs listed, so plan on confirming fuel and services before you go. Published remarks also call out trees near both runway ends. Runway 32 has seven-foot trees close to the threshold area. Runway 14 has a tree and a fence near the end. Runway 32 also slopes uphill at 3.7 percent. Wildlife is present on and near the airport. For clearance delivery, Seattle ARTCC is listed in the remarks.
