1966 Map of North Hero

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

North Hero and Isle La Motte dominate this landscape, where the waters of Lake Champlain define the geography of the islands. The map details an era when an Old Railroad Grade still traced the spine of the Alburg Tongue, crossing Alburg Passage to reach the mainland. Agricultural and industrial patterns are visible through numerous land-use markers, including several quarries on the western shores and a Gravel Pit near Macomb Bay. Local genealogy and settlement history are anchored by landmarks such as the North Hero Sch, Jerusalem Cem, and Hyde Cem. The intricate shoreline is heavily documented with family-named points and bays, from Fisk Point to Hazen Point, illustrating a community deeply connected to the lake's navigation and resources.
