1948 Map of Mount Mansfield

About this map

Mount Mansfield State Forest dominates this mid-century landscape, capturing the area's development as a premier recreation destination before the onset of modern expansion. The peaks of The Chin, The Nose, and The Forehead form a high-altitude spine where The Long Trail winds past Taft Lodge and the Mount Mansfield Hotel. This era shows early winter-sports infrastructure, such as the State Ski Dormitory and the Toll Road, alongside older rural landmarks.
