About this map

The Green Mountain National Forest dominates this section of the Southern Vermont landscape, defined by the prominent heights of Mt Snow and Haystack Mtn. The hydrology is anchored by the Somerset Reservoir to the north and the Searsburg Reservoir further south, both part of the Deerfield River system. The topography reflects a region shaped by high ridges and deep river valleys, with Deerfield Ridge running north-south through the center of the sheet.

Local history is preserved in a high concentration of small family and community burial grounds, including the Somerset Cem, Cutler Cem, and the uniquely named Rice Snow Cem near the eastern border. These sites, along with the settlement of Searsburg and the clusters at Sleepy Hollow and Wilmington Hts, offer valuable data points for genealogists. The road network, including the Ski Area Access Rd and various forest corridors like National Forest 71, illustrates the area's transition toward a recreation-based economy.
