The mountain at the top of the county
New Hampshire granted Stratton on July 30, 1761, and the town organized on May 31, 1788. Samuel Boutell represented the town in the legislature from 1799 to 1816. Stratton Mountain is the town’s high point and the highest point in Windham County and in the southern Green Mountains generally. It has two peaks, and the southern one is higher, at 3,940 feet. Its slopes shed water in every direction, south and southeast by way of Ball Mountain Brook to the West River, northwest to the Winhall River, and southwest to the East Branch of the Deerfield River, all of it bound eventually for the Connecticut River.
On the wooded south summit stands the Stratton Mountain Lookout Tower, built around 1934 by a crew of the Civilian Conservation Corps. It’s one of the state’s last surviving fire towers, it was one of the last three taken out of service for fire spotting, in 1982, and it joined the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. It’s generally open for the public to climb, and a Green Mountain Club caretaker lives in a small cabin beside it in season. In 1840 Daniel Webster spoke on Stratton Mountain to a crowd of 10,000 Whigs.

Where two great trails began
Stratton Mountain has a special place in the history of American hiking. In 1909 James P. Taylor, then assistant headmaster of Vermont Academy in Saxtons River, was on the mountain when he thought of a trail from Massachusetts to Canada. That became the Long Trail, which the Green Mountain Club built between 1910 and 1930 and which is the oldest long-distance trail in the United States. Later, while on the summit of Stratton as the Long Trail was being built, Benton MacKaye thought of a trail spanning the whole Appalachian range. The result was the Appalachian Trail, 2,170 miles from Georgia to Maine. In southern Vermont the two trails run together, and they cross the summit of Stratton from south to north.
The northern end of the mountain is home to Stratton Mountain Resort. The poet and novelist Robert Penn Warren spent the later part of his life in Stratton and Fairfield, Connecticut, and he’s buried in Stratton.
On the map, start with Stratton Arlington Road, then follow Stratton Mountain Road, Mountain Road, West Jamaica Road, County Road and Pike Hollow Road across town. Grout Pond and Stratton Pond are printed too. Stratton dates to 1761.
