2015 Map of Smarts Mountain

About this map

Smarts Mountain and the surrounding high ground of the Appalachian National Scenic Trail dominate this landscape between the Connecticut and Mascoma river valleys. The terrain is marked by numerous family-named landmarks and peaks, including Mousley Mtn, Moody Mtn, and Smith Mtn, alongside the dramatic verticality of Winslow Ledge and Holts Ledge. Small settlements such as Quinttown, Lyme Center, and Hardscrabble are connected by a network of rural routes like Grafton Tpke and Dorchester Rd. The area is notably water-rich, featuring numerous basins like Reservoir Pond, Lily Pond, and Trout Pond that feed into the Mascoma River and drainage systems like Jacobs Brook. This survey illustrates a modern mountain landscape where local history is preserved in named hills like Demmick Hill and Flint Hill alongside long-established hiking routes.
