2018 Map of Westminster West

Water plays a central role in the landscape's organization, with Grassy Brook flowing through the valley near Brookline and Sacketts Brook carving through the central hills. To the north, Athens Pond and Athens Brook mark the upper reaches of the map, while to the east, smaller water bodies like Watson Pond sit below Rocky Ridge. This 2018 survey illustrates the persistent rural character of Vermont's southern uplands, where the placement of roads and homesteads still follows the natural contours of prominent features like Hickory Ridge and Hartley Hill.
