John, it's quiz time!

America’s national monuments tell powerful stories—some ancient, some awe-inspiring, and some completely unexpected. 

From red rock canyons and sacred tribal lands to fossil beds older than dinosaurs, these treasured places capture who we are—and what we stand to lose if we don’t protect them. 

But how much do you really know about them?  

Take our interactive scratch-off quiz to test your monument knowledge—and learn how you can help protect these treasured places for generations to come. 

Why take the quiz? The more you know about our national monuments, the stronger the case we can make for bold action from our leaders to defend these irreplaceable landscapes.  

Are you ready to be a monument maven? Let’s go!
