1917 Map of Rochester

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Rochester serves as the central hub of this Green Mountain landscape, where the White River R. R. follows the valley floor alongside the White River. The surrounding topography is defined by significant gaps and peaks, including Brandon Gap and Middlebury Gap, which provided critical passage through the high ridges. The map captures a distributed network of remote upland communities and industrial outposts, marked by features such as the Hancock Tunnel and a Mine near Taleville. Educational life in these isolated pockets is evidenced by numerous rural institutions like the West Hill School and North Hollow School. The famous Long Trail traverses the western ridgeline, crossing through the Monastery Mtn and Mt Horrid areas, while various timber or hunting outposts like Bingo Camp and Garland Camp dot the interior forests.
