2018 Map of Burke Mountain

About this map

Burke Mountain dominates the eastern horizon of this Vermont landscape, where the East Branch Passumpsic River carves a central valley through the towns of East Burke and Folsom. The settlement pattern reflects a mix of traditional agriculture and more recent recreation, with numerous named trails like Troll Stroll and Coronary Bypass indicating the area's development for outdoor activities. Historic infrastructure remains visible in landmarks such as the Burrington Covered Bridge near East Lyndon. Genealogy researchers can locate several well-preserved burial grounds, including Howland Cemetery and the North Kirby Brookside Cemetery. To the west, the West Burke Aerodrome sits near the headwaters of Roundy Brook, while the village of Lyndonville occupies the southwestern corner of the quadrangle. The map captures a transition where old farm roads like White School Road meet modern recreational development along the slopes of Kirby Mountain.
