1948 Map of Bolton Mountain

About this map

Fort Ethan Allen Military Reservation dominates the northwestern highlands of this terrain, where a sprawling Artillery Target Range sits adjacent to the high peaks of the Green Mountains. Mapping conducted just after the war captures a landscape defined by state-managed timberlands and early recreational infrastructure, including Taylor Lodge and Bolton Lodge tucked away near the summits. The eastern edge is anchored by the Waterbury Reservoir, formed by the damming of the Little River, while numerous high-altitude water bodies like Lake Mansfield and Goose Pond dot the drainages between the ridges.
