1927 Map of Mount Mansfield

USGS Topo · Published 1931

About this map

Smugglers Notch and the high ridges of the Green Mountains dominate this mid-1920s landscape, where the Lamoille River carves a deep valley through the northern Vermont hills. The region’s economic life is visible in the network of the Central Vermont Ry, which services hubs like Cambridge Junction and East Fletcher. This era shows a landscape densely populated with small local institutions, particularly specialized rural schools such as the Irish Settlement School, Osgood Hill School, and Number Eleven School, reflecting a period before the consolidation of mountain townships. Along the riverbanks and mountain streams, industrial sites like the Morse Mill and the power at Fairfax Falls indicate the late-stage reliance on water power and timber that characterized the Lamoille Valley. The map also records higher-elevation landmarks like the Lake of the Clouds and the winding Toll Road climbing toward the summit.
