About this map

The Missisquoi River cuts a prominent path through Franklin County, anchoring the early 20th-century economy of northern Vermont. This landscape is defined by its international proximity, with the Canada United States border marking the northern limit at Morses Line. The rail network of the Central Vermont and the St Johnsbury and Lake Champlain RR intersects at Sheldon Junction, facilitating the transport of local dairy and timber.

Smaller hamlets and agrarian hubs like Bakersfield and Enosburg Center are connected by a dense grid of rural district schools, including Hubbard School and Egypt School. Notable local industry is evidenced by Gilberts Tannery near West Enosburg. The terrain rises from the river valley to prominent heights such as Little Pinnacle and Shattuck Mtn, while Lake Carmi serves as a major recreational and geographic focal point in the northern township of Franklin.
