About this map

Lyndonville serves as the primary hub in this corner of Caledonia County, situated along the Passumpsic River and the Canadian Pacific railroad. The landscape is defined by the significant rise of Burke Mtn and its West Peak, which anchor the extensive Darling State Forest Park. This mountainous terrain transitions into a network of forested basins, including portions of the Victory State Forest and Lyndon State Forest.

Settlement patterns follow the valley floors, with small villages like East Burke, Burke Hollow, and Red Village linked by rural routes and numerous named waterways such as Flower Brook and Dish Mill Brook. The presence of several Cem sites and local landmarks like Pudding Hill and Bemis Hill offer clear points of interest for those researching local family history or the geography of the Northeast Kingdom during the late twentieth century.
