2012 Map of Killington Peak

About this map

Killington Peak and the surrounding summits of the Coolidge Range dominate this high-elevation landscape in the Green Mountains during the early 21st century. The map centers on the transition from the recreational infrastructure of the Killington Ski Area in the north to the more secluded valleys of North Shrewsbury and Shrewsbury in the south. Notable local history is preserved in several family and community burial grounds, including the Wood-Clement Episcopal Cem and Church of Our Saviour Cem near South Sherburne. The drainage patterns of the region are clearly defined by the headwaters of the Cold River and Great Roaring Brook, while the Woodward Reservoir and Black Pond sit along the eastern edge. A network of primitive and local roads like Tin Shanty Rd and Old Plymouth Rd suggests the enduring rural character of these mountain townships.
