Sherman Ridge, named after Captain Sherman, who was at the forefront of the world’s steamboat revolution. After running a steamboat on the Hudson in competition with Robert Fulton, Sherman moved to Vergennes in 1813 to oversee construction and operations of six Lake Champlain Steamboats.  Sited at the highest northern-most area of Vergennes, you can hear the lulling sounds of the Vergennes Waterfalls in the distance and views beyond to Adirondack Mountains of New York.
