About this map

The Chittenden Reservoir dominates the high terrain of the Green Mountains, surrounded by the protected lands of the Green Mountain National Forest. This 2015 topography reveals a landscape where historical burial grounds such as Horton Cem, Baird Cem, and Eggelston Cem are tucked into the foothills and along the winding courses of Furnace Brook and Mendon Brook. The map illustrates a clear distinction between the rugged, forested uplands and the increasing residential development in the valleys.

Subdivisions and estates like Pinecrest Acres, Mountain View Estates, and Colonial Estates have emerged near the older village centers of North Chittenden, East Pittsford, and Mendon. For the local historian or genealogist, the map serves as a contemporary record of these established family landmarks, including Cheney Hill Cem and Tenney Cem, while showing the vital water infrastructure of the Rutland City Reservoir and Lefferts Pond.
