2018 Map of Snake Mountain

About this map

Addison serves as the central hub of this Champlain Valley landscape, where the flat, fertile basin of the West and Middle branches of West Branch Dead Creek meets the dramatic uplift of Snake Mtn. The map reveals a high density of small family and community burial grounds, including Grandview Cem, Hanks Yard Cem, and the Advent - Smith Cem, which provide significant genealogical anchor points for the region. The drainage patterns of Otter Creek and the Lemon Fair River define the agricultural boundaries, while the presence of specialized landing strips like Spencer Airport and Ass-Pirin Acres Airport highlights the mix of traditional farming and private aviation. On the slopes of the mountain, a Cranberry Bog sits tucked between contour lines, illustrating the varied wetland ecosystems that persist alongside established homesteads and rural routes like Jersey St.
