Vermont on its own, with strong shaded relief and no labels. The dark version has the most contrast. The light version uses far less ink on a home printer.

The physical geography of Vermont

The Green Mountains run the length of Vermont from north to south and include Mt. Mansfield, the highest point. West of them is the Champlain Valley, a lowland beside Lake Champlain, with the Taconic Mountains in the southwest. East of the mountains is a region of hills and river valleys that slopes down to the Connecticut River, which forms the border with New Hampshire. The northeast corner is a rugged, thinly settled highland.

Built from real data, not stock images.

Every Vermont physical map on this page was rendered from NASA SRTM 30-meter elevation data, with hydrography from Natural Earth and the shoreline-clipped state outline from the US Census Bureau. Each map is colored over that state’s own elevation range, and the relief shading is exaggerated so gentle terrain still shows.
