About this map

Lincoln and South Lincoln anchor the western valleys of this 2015 survey, where the New Haven River and its numerous tributaries like Cota Brook and Alder Brook descend from the high peaks. The topography is dominated by the massive ridge of the Green Mountain National Forest, featuring a sequence of major summits including Mt Abraham, Mt Grant, and Mt Wilson. These peaks form a formidable natural barrier, with the Lincoln Gap serving as a vital passage for Lincoln Gap Rd crossing between Addison and Washington counties.

Local heritage is preserved in several family and community burial grounds, such as Lee Cem, Pope Cem, and the Johnson Cem. The road network reflects the area's history, from the high-elevation path of The Natural Turnpike to the winding tracks of French Settlement Rd and Stetson Hollow. Landforms like Prospect Rock and Cobb Hill provide distinct landmarks within this heavily wooded mountain landscape.
