2015 Map of North Hero

About this map

Isle La Motte stands as a prominent feature within the northern reaches of Lake Champlain, where the island's landscape is defined by a mix of residential roads and agricultural tracts. This 2015 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates the enduring rural character of this island community, showing a settlement pattern that respects the undulating shoreline and interior drainage. The map provides precise topographic data that helps researchers understand the relationship between the island's elevation and its historical land use, particularly in how roads follow the natural contours of the land. It serves as a clear digital-era record of the island's infrastructure and geographical boundaries in the early 21st century.
