1962 Map of Lake Champlain

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Lake Champlain serves as the central anchor for this expansive regional view, flanked by the Adirondack Mountains to the west and the Green Mountains to the east. The map captures the area during a period of established military and educational growth, featuring major installations like Plattsburgh Air Force Base and Ethan Allen Air Force Base alongside institutions such as the University of Vermont and Middlebury College. This edition reflects a landscape where heavy industry and natural conservation coexist; the legacy of extraction is evident at the Lyon Mountain Iron Mine and Witherbee-Sherman Iron Mine, while the vast Adirondack Park and Green Mountain National Forest protect the high peaks of Mt Marcy and Mt Mansfield. The transportation network is well-defined by the Delaware & Hudson RR and the burgeoning interstate system, including Interstate 87 and Interstate 89, illustrating the connectivity between New York, Vermont, and the Canadian border.
