About this map

Green Mountain National Forest dominates this section of the Vermont interior, where the high ridgeline of the Green Mountains serves as a natural boundary between Addison, Chittenden, and Washington counties. This 2015 survey details the rugged spine of the range, featuring peaks such as Mount Ellen, Stark Mtn, and Lincoln Mtn. These summits are connected by significant geographical notches like Appalachian Gap and Huntington Gap, which have historically dictated travel through the high country.

Small settlements such as Jerusalem and Hanksville sit at the lower elevations, where the Huntington River and its tributaries carve narrow valleys. Genealogists and local historians will find the exact locations of Little Ireland Cem and Jerusalem Cem, tucked away near roads like Little Ireland Rd and Jerusalem Rd. To the east, the map transitions toward the recreational landscape of Sugarbush Village, showing the modern footprint of resort development against the backdrop of Cutts Peak and Lincoln Peak.
