About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the central artery for this borderland, separating Vermont and New Hampshire as it flows past Skitchewaug Mountain. On the Vermont side, Springfield appears as a dense hub of activity, where the Black River creates a distinctive urban landscape featuring the Park Street Bridge and Bridge Street Bridge. This area is a significant focal point for local history, containing numerous burial grounds such as Oakland Cem and Saint Marys Cem.

Further south, the landscape transitions into a more rural character around Goulds Mill and Hardscrabble Corner. Notable landmarks including the Baltimore Covered Bridge and the Cheshire Toll Bridge highlight the historical importance of river crossings in the region's development. Small settlements like Weathersfield Bow and North Charlestown are depicted along the riverbanks, surrounded by family-named peaks like Butterfield Hill and Downer Hill that define the valley's profile.
