1927 Map of Mount Mansfield

About this map

The Lamoille River valley serves as the central corridor for this 1920s survey, where the St. Johnsbury and Lake Champlain Railroad meets the Central Vermont line. This era of mountain transit is well-preserved, featuring the Toll Road winding toward the peaks and the high-elevation Halfway House. The landscape is dotted with small-scale neighborhood infrastructure, including more than a dozen local schoolhouses such as the English Settlement School and the Buck Hollow School, reflecting a decentralized rural society before the consolidation of the mid-20th century. At Smugglers Notch, the terrain rises sharply from the valley floors of Cambridge and Underhill, while industrial relics like Moises Mill suggest a working landscape deeply tied to the river systems and mountain gaps.
