2015 Map of Albany

About this map

Lowell Mountains and the high ground of Mt Norris dominate the western horizon of this Vermont landscape, where the headwaters of the Gihon River and Wild Br carve through the deep valley of Eden Notch. The eastern half of the map reveals a more settled rural pattern, centered on the historic village of Albany and the higher elevation plateau of Craftsbury Common. This area is defined by its glacial hydrology, featuring Little Hosmer Pond, Mud Pond, and the winding course of the Black River. Local history is anchored by several burial grounds, including the Albany Village Cem and Craftsbury Village Cem, while Sterling Coll sits at the heart of the Craftsbury community. The network of backroads like Hatch Brook Rd and Collinsville Rd connects these upland hamlets to the various brooks and branches that drain the Green Mountain interior.
