How to Use This Putney, Vermont Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Putney, 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 Putney.

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 Putney, Vermont

Putney is a locality in Windham County, Vermont, United States. It is a small community with a population of 571. The population density is 157.2 people per km². Putney is located at 42.9748°N, 72.5218°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 05346.

Putney reveals itself through the persistent, low-frequency murmur of Sacketts Brook, which cuts a jagged path through the center of the landscape before spilling toward the Connecticut River. It lies 12.6 miles west-northwest of Keene, NH (from Keene, NH: bearing 283°T), and is situated 8.8 miles north-northeast of Brattleboro. The earth here rises in steady, wooded swells that gather shadows long before the sun actually dips behind the distant silhouette of the Taconic Range. In the quiet transition of late afternoon, the light takes on a bruised, golden quality, illuminating the dense canopy of the Putney Central School Forest and the open, grassy expanse of Kathan Meadows. A few miles to the east, the stillness of Spofford Lake offers a stark, glassy contrast to the tumbling water of the brooks that vein the surrounding hillsides.

Putney maintains a deliberate, agrarian rhythm, defined by the persistent cultivation of its soil and a heritage rooted in independent, small-scale enterprise. The local economy thrives on a blend of artisanal craft and specialized education, reflecting a cultural character that prizes self-reliance and the careful stewardship of the land. While the modern world moves with frantic velocity, the pace in Putney remains anchored by the seasonal cycles of harvest and the quiet intellectual life fostered by its schools. Those who wander beyond the village center might find their way toward the more rugged terrain near Fay Falls or traverse the elevation changes found along The Retreat Trails, observing how the community has integrated its history into a landscape that remains stubbornly, beautifully rural.
