1968 Map of Sunderland

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Batten Kill river valley anchors the northwestern corner of this landscape, where the town of Sunderland sits at the foot of the Green Mountains. Rising sharply from the valley floor, the terrain transitions into the protected wilderness of the Green Mountain National Forest, a territory defined by high-elevation wetlands and steep ridges. The map documents the primitive transportation network and remote outposts of the late 1960s, including the historic Kelley Stand and the small settlement of East Kansas. A significant portion of the Appalachian Trail traverses the eastern half of the quadrangle, connecting a series of remote hiker camps like Bourn Shelter and Caughnawaga Shelter. The presence of Lye Brook Meadows and Branch Pond suggests a complex drainage system high above the valley, where numerous brooks like Roaring Branch begin their steep descent through the granite hills.
