Explore Stratton Mountain, Vermont, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Stratton Mountain, 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 Stratton Mountain.
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.

Stratton Mountain rises as a singular, imposing presence above the dense, timbered reaches of southern Vermont. It lies 34.3 miles south of Rutland, VT (from Rutland, VT: bearing 174°T), and is situated 8.7 miles east-southeast of Manchester Center. The North Branch Ball Mountain Brook cuts a cold, clear path through the lower elevations, its waters tumbling over stones smoothed by centuries of seasonal melt. To the west, the distant Taconic Range silhouettes itself against a sky that turns the color of hammered slate as the afternoon wanes. The air here holds a sharp, clean weight, smelling of damp cedar and the cooling earth that characterizes the Green Mountain National Forest nearby. Beyond the immediate slopes, the landscape opens into the quietude of French Hollow, where the shadows stretch long and thin across the valley floor.
Winter defines the pulse of Stratton Mountain, a season that dictates the ebb and flow of the local economy as travelers arrive to navigate the steep, forested terrain. In the warmer months, the focus shifts to the quiet stillness of Stratton Mountain Lake and the deeper, shadowed canopy of the Winhall Town Forest, where the silence is broken only by the movement of wind in the hardwoods. The history of this land is written in the slow, persistent labor of the woods and the rugged independence of those who settled the high country. Life moves with a deliberate, measured pace, far removed from the clamor of the lowlands, grounded by the steady gravity of the mountains and the enduring, rhythmic cycle of the seasons.

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.
