2021 Map of Stone Mountain

About this map

Stone Mtn and a series of high peaks dominate this Essex County landscape, where the terrain is carved by the drainages of Granby Stream and Cutler Mill Brook. The map reveals a high-elevation backcountry characterized by scattered water bodies like Cow Mountain Pond and Little Cow Pond, which sit nestled between ridges. Small cemeteries, including Boyce Cem, Stuart Cem, and Spaulding Cem, are the primary markers of historical settlement, often located near local thoroughfares such as Granby Rd or Cole Hill Rd. The network of timber and access roads like Paul Stream Rd and Tug Mountain Rd suggests a landscape managed for forestry and traditional mountain use. The density of named summits, from Sable Mtn in the north to Temple Mtn in the south, indicates a deeply traditional Vermont upland geography where family and place names define every significant landform.
