1997 Map of Danby
USGS Topo · Published 2000About this map
Danby and the village of South End occupy the narrow valley floor where the Vermont Railway and U.S. Highway 7 parallel the path of Otter Creek. This 1990s U.S. Forest Service revision reveals a landscape heavily defined by protected lands, including the Green Mountain National Forest and the Big Branch Wilderness. The map serves as a detailed record of high-altitude features and backcountry infrastructure, showing the Appalachian Long Trail as it traverses ridges between Baker Peak and Styles Peak. Significant local history is found at the South End Cem and the Mount Tabor Work Center, while the presence of the Old Job site and multiple shelters like Big Branch Shelter and Peru Peak Shelter point to the area's long-standing connection to timber harvesting and recreational hiking. Water features such as Griffith Lake and Hapgood Pond are vital landmarks within the dense forest blocks.
