Maurice F. Graham
Hornet Hill Monument
Monument dedicated to Captain Maurice Francis Graham, an airmail pilot, who on January 10, 1930, departed Los Angeles, California for Salt Lake City, Utah. He was forced to safely land his Boeing 95 aircraft during a blinding snow storm on top of a 9,500 foot mountain called Hornet Hill. Sadly, Maurice died of exposure in an attempt to walk out. His body wasn’t found until July 1930.
Location: about 12 miles SE of Cedar City, Utah (37° 29.367′ N, 113° 1.17′ W)
