About this map

Arrowhead Mountain Lake dominates this mid-century Vermont landscape, formed by the winding Lamoille River as it passes through the valley. The settlement of Milton serves as a hub near the southern shore, while East Georgia and Georgia Center represent the agricultural and residential clusters to the north. The presence of the Central Vermont railroad line following the corridor of the Ethan Allen Highway highlights the historical importance of this transport route between regional centers.

Educational and community landmarks are well-documented, including the Bellows Free Academy in Fairfax and scattered rural facilities like School No 14 and School No 6. Local history is further preserved through numerous burial grounds such as Hope Cem and Beaver Cem, alongside several old Quarry sites. The terrain is defined by prominent rises like Arrowhead Mountain and Cushman Hill, which overlook the surrounding brooks and meadows.
