2012 Map of Knox Mountain

About this map

Spruce Mountain and the high ridges of the Washington County highlands dominate this 2012 survey, where the headwaters of the S Br Wells River and Waits River carve through a landscape of granite peaks and isolated notches. The mapping of Seyon Ranch near Noyes Pond reflects the area's legacy of upland agriculture and recreation. Local genealogy is well-documented through several historic burial grounds, including Westville Cem and Clement Cem, which are scattered along winding routes like Clement RD and Gore RD. A significant cultural landmark, the William Scott Memorial Monument, stands near the eastern border, honoring the 'Sleeping Sentinel' of the Civil War. The network of brooks, such as Nasmith Brook and Health Brook, illustrates the complex drainage patterns of this Vermont terrain before it descends toward the river valleys.
