About this map

Jacksonville and Wilmington anchor this study of the southern Vermont hills during the late twentieth century. The landscape is defined by its significant water bodies, including the northern reach of Harriman Reservoir and several smaller upland pools like Lake Raponda and Spruce Lake. The terrain rises sharply to summits such as Hogback Mountain and Mt Olga, the latter of which is contained within the protected boundaries of Molly Stark State Park.

A complex network of drainage systems, including the East Branch North River and the Green River, illustrates the topographic character of the region. The map captures the quiet transition between the townships of Wilmington, Marlboro, Whitingham, and Halifax. The distribution of small settlements like West Halifax alongside isolated hilltop landmarks like Hosley Hill and Stickney Hill reflects the enduring rural settlement patterns of Windham County.
