About this map

The Black River carves a significant corridor through this Windsor County landscape, connecting a chain of lakes including Amherst Lake, Echo Lake, and the expansive Lake Rescue. The valley floor supports the primary settlements of Ludlow and Proctorsville, while smaller hamlets like Grahamsville and Smithville occupy the transition between the river and the surrounding peaks. This modern survey reflects a region defined by its water management and recreation, evidenced by the Jewell Brook Site Number 5 Reservoir and the numerous small ponds like Colby Pond and Tiny Pond tucked into the highlands.

Local history and genealogy are preserved in several burial grounds, including the Tyson Pollard Cem and Twentymile Stream Cem. The terrain is dominated by the Green Mountains to the west and the Coolidge Range to the north, with named peaks such as Ludlow Mtn and The Pinnacle providing steep relief. Historical travel routes are indicated by the presence of the Crown Point Rd, hinting at the long-standing importance of this mountain pass.
