About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the primary artery through this Upper Valley corridor, marking the state line where White River Junction and Hartford meet West Lebanon and Hanover. The landscape is a hub of education and transport, anchored by the campus of Dartmouth College and the southern activity of the Lebanon Municipal Airport. This modern survey details a densely layered geography of local history, including over a dozen burial grounds such as Sacred Heart Cem, Mount Olivet Cem, and the Christian Street Cem.

Outdoor recreation and terrain define the upland areas, where the Appalachian National Scenic Trl winds through Velvet Rocks and across the Ledyard Free Bridge. To the east and west, the terrain rises toward heights like Griggs Mtn and Mt Support, overlooking a network of water bodies including Boston Lot Lake and the Lower Hurricane Reservoir. The convergence of the White River and Mascoma River into the Connecticut underscores the historical importance of this junction for New England transit.
