1948 Map of Mount Philo

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The rolling Champlain Valley landscape of Chittenden County comes into sharp focus during the late 1940s, a period when the rural character of Vermont remained dominated by small hamlets and agricultural crossroads. Shelburne Falls and East Charlotte anchor the northern and central portions of the sheet, while the southern boundary follows the Chittenden Co Addison Co line through North Ferrisburg. Prominent topographic features like Mount Philo, topped with its Airway Beacon, and Pease Mountain rise sharply from the surrounding fields, offering a contrast to the meandering path of the La Platte River and Lewis Creek.
