Mayo is the closest community to the Bonnet Plume River, part of the Canadian Heritage Rivers System, which this monument on the banks of the Stewart River commemorates. The Bonnet Plume, which is only accessible by air, flows over 350 kms (217 miles) before joining the Peel River, a major tributary of the Mackenzie River.
