Sightseeing
One of the largest obelisks in the country and the tallest structure in VT. Travel to the top and see three states. Surrounded by beautiful houses and lots of history. Check out the nearby cemetery and Congregationalist church for more Rev War history (plus, Robert Frost is buried there).
