1920 Map of Lincoln Mountain

About this map

Lincoln Mountain and the high ridges of the Green Mountains dominate this 1920 survey, which reveals a landscape defined by isolated hill farms and small valley settlements. The map highlights a dense network of district schoolhouses, including Jerusalem School, Alder Hill School, and Robinson School, many of which served dispersed families in the townships of Lincoln, Waitsfield, and Warren. Settlement is concentrated along the narrow valley floors of the Mad River and the New Haven River, where villages like Downingville and Waitsfield Common were established near water power. High-elevation landmarks like Battell Lodge and Procter Lodge mark the early development of mountain recreation and trail systems near peaks such as Mt Ellen and Mt Abraham. The terrain is deeply incised by dozens of named waterways, including Beane Brook and Clay Brook, which carve through the high gaps like Appalachian Gap and Lincoln Gap.
