2016 Map of Rouses Point

About this map

Lake Champlain dominates this borderland landscape, where the international boundary meets the state line between New York and Vermont. The village of Rouses Point serves as a critical transit hub at the head of the Richelieu River, linked to the Vermont shore by the Rouses Point Bridge. Across the water, the geography is defined by the elongated Alburg Tongue and the limestone-rich island of Isle la Motte. This 2016 survey illustrates a modern rural economy where aviation at Hawk's Nest Airport and local infrastructure like Missile Base Rd exist alongside long-established local landmarks. Genealogists will find several notable burial grounds, including Saint Amadeus Cem and Alburg Center Cem, while the shoreline is dotted with named points and reefs like Burying Yard Point and Ferryall Reef that have guided navigators through the Point au Fer Channel for generations.
