1970 Map of Waitsfield

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Mad River valley serves as the central corridor for this 1970 Vermont survey, where the river's path dictates the placement of towns like Waitsfield and Moretown. The landscape transitions from the valley floor to the high peaks of the Northfield Mountains and the slopes of the Green Mountain National Forest. Local history is well-preserved through numerous burial grounds, including the Wait Cem and Village Cem, which anchor the early settlements. Small-scale resource extraction is noted by a Quarry in Duxbury and a Mine near the village of South Duxbury. A distinctive Covered Bridge spans the river, reflecting the traditional infrastructure of the Mad River Valley. To the west, the rugged terrain of the Camels Hump State Forest rises toward peaks like Double Top Mtn, while the Lookout Tower on Scrag Mtn provides a vantage point over the southern reaches of the quadrangle.
