The Hoosac Range is an extension of the Green Mountains of Vermont, and is the first mountain barrier encountered west of the Connecticut River Valley. "Hoosac" is an Algonquin word meaning, "place of stones".

Apple trees interspersed throughout the campground are the only reminder today of its farming history. The remainder of the pa ... [Read More]
