1961 Map of Pico Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Pico Peak dominates this landscape, rising above a network of ridgelines and valley settlements in the early 1960s. The intersection of the Long Trail and the Appalachian Trail at Sherburne Pass marks a critical node for hikers and mountain travelers, while the rugged terrain is protected within the Green Mountain National Forest and Gifford Woods State Forest Park. In the eastern valley, the Ottauquechee River provides the primary corridor for travel and settlement, connecting Sherburne Center and North Sherburne. Local life is anchored by the Sherburne Valley Sch and Riverside Cem along the riverbank. This era of mapping documents the early development of ski lifts on the slopes of Pico, illustrating the shift toward seasonal recreation alongside the traditional forest and river economies.
