How to Use This Danby, Vermont Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Danby, Vermont. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Vermont or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Danby.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Danby, Vermont

Danby is a locality in Rutland County, Vermont, United States. It is a small community with a population of 200. The population density is 108.0 people per km². Danby is located at 43.3462°N, 72.9954°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 05739.

Danby reveals itself through the rhythmic murmuring of Mill Brook, which carves a path through the valley floor and defines the steady pulse of the landscape. It lies 18.3 miles south of Rutland, VT (from Rutland, VT: bearing 184°T), and is situated 14.6 miles east-northeast of Porter. The terrain rises toward the horizon where the distant Taconic Range softens into shades of violet and slate, providing a backdrop to the vast expanse of the Otter Creek Wildlife Management Area that surrounds the lower reaches. A traveler might wander toward the Baker Peak Trail to find the air thinning and cooling, or look toward the Green Mountain National Forest, where the dense canopy marks the transition into wilder, elevated ground. Three miles away, the quiet surface of Lost Pond reflects the shifting clouds, offering a stillness that seems to permeate the very soil of the valley.

Danby maintains a character forged in the extraction of white marble, a trade that once drew laborers from across the globe to carve the earth’s own skeleton into blocks for the nation’s monuments. While the heavy machinery of the past has largely quieted, the remnants of this industry remain etched into the foundations of local buildings and the rough, weathered stone walls that trace the boundaries of old farmsteads. The local economy now leans into a quieter rhythm, sustained by the seasonal cycle of maple sugaring and the stewardship of the land, where the shadow of the Ice Beds seven miles to the north serves as a lingering reminder of a colder, ancient epoch. Life here moves with the deliberate pace of a place that understands its history, finding common ground in the small, everyday tasks that keep the community connected to the land and to each other.

About This Danby Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Danby, Vermont. Coordinates: 43.346184, -72.995382. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Danby includes the ZIP code (05739), telephone area code (802), county seat of Rutland County (Rutland), and school district assignment (Taconic and Green Regional School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
