Randonnée Pédestre Vermont Randonnée pédestre Le Vermont Chapitre tiré du guide À propos de l’auteur Yves Séguin est né à Sainte-Rose de Laval en 1961. Dès son enfance, il découvre la nature, les montagnes et les lacs des Laurentides, grâce au chalet familial près de La Conception. À l’âge de 16 ans, il parcourt l’Ouest canadien et tombe sous le charme des montagnes Rocheuses. Le goût des voyages, de l’aventure, des grands espaces et des activités de plein air fera désormais partie intégrante de son mode de vie. Il entreprend alors, tour à tour, un voyage à vélo dans les provinces atlantiques, des ascensions en escalade de rocher (dont le cap Trinité, au Saguenay, et El Capitan, en Californie), en escalade de glace (dont la Pomme d’Or, dans la région de Charlevoix), de nombreuses randonnées à skis ainsi que des centaines de randonnées pédestres. Passionné de culture autant que d’aventure, Yves découvre ainsi plusieurs pays d’Amérique du Nord, d’Amérique centrale, d’Europe et d’Afrique du Nord. Éducateur physique, Yves est titulaire d’un baccalauréat de l’Université du Québec à Montréal (UQÀM) depuis 1991 ainsi que d’un certificat en sciences de l’éducation de la même université depuis 1994. Il œuvre dans le domaine du plein air (randonnée pédestre, escalade, vélo, ski de fond, etc.) depuis une quinzaine d’années et a été recherchiste pour l’émission de télévision Oxygène (1992-1993). Il a aussi été forma- teur en randonnée pédestre et en orientation (carte et boussole) pour le programme de formation à la Fédération québécoise de la marche. Yves a signé la chronique hebdomadaire Oxygène durant l’année 1995 à La Presse. En 1997, il a remporté le deuxième prix lors du Prix Molson de journalisme en loisir, catégorie périodiques. À l’été 1998, il a été chroniqueur radio à l’émission D’un soleil à l’autre (Radio- Canada). Il est aussi journaliste pigiste depuis de nombreuses années. Yves Séguin est l’auteur ou co-auteur des guides: y Randonnée pédestre au Québec; y Randonnée pédestre Nord-Est des États-Unis; y Marché à Montréal et ses environs; y Raquette et ski de fond au Québec; y Le Sentier transcanadien au Québec; y Costa Rica (co-auteur Francis Giguère); y Tunisie (co-auteure Marie-Josée Guy). Il a aussi collaboré à la recherche et à la rédaction des guides Le Québec, Montréal, Grand Canyon et Arizona et Sud-Ouest américain. Tous ces guides sont publiés par les Guides de voyage Ulysse. 4 LE VERMONT 0 20 40km QUÉBEC (Canada) 55 Coaticook 0 15 30mi Sutton 243 133 Lac 147 C A N A D A 237 139 Memphrémagog É T A T S - U N I S Alburg Richford 105 North Troy Derby Line Beecher Norton Falls Swanton Jay Peak Newport 105 100 114 111 2 Troy 91 89 108 242 Island Pond St. Albans Lowell Orleans 105 36 Bloomfield 100 5a Bakerfield 109 14 Barton Westmore Grand Isle North Stratford East Haven Cambridge Jeffersonville West Burke South Hero Hyde Park 114 Lac Mount Guildhall Champlain Mansfield 16 Morrisville Lyndonville Winooski 108 100 Hardwick Lyndon Stowe 2 Burlington 15 St. Johnsbury Hunger Cabot 3 Worcester Shelburne Mountain 14 2 Danville Waterbury 93 12 Marshfield Littleton Charlotte Barnet 116 Montpelier 302 Plainfield 7 Sugar Hill Waitsfield Lisbon 17 Barre Groton Franconia Vergennes 302 110 N Bristol Warren 12 Newbury Addison 116 112 12a 25 100 91 White Mountain National Forest Middlebury 89 Bradford 25 118 125 Chelsea Green Hancock 93 Mountain Randolph Warren National Forest Fairlee 25a Rochester Campton 113 Brandon 73 Mount Bethel Horrid Mount Independence Lyme Plymouth State Historic Site 100 Blue Ridge 118 Pittsford Mountain Barnard 30 Norwich Hanover 22a Deer Leap NEW Proctor Mountain 12 Fair Mendon Pico Peak HAMPSHIRE Haven Quechee Rutland Killington Lebanon Peak Hartland 4 Plainfield Clarendon Shrewsbury 106 140 Grantham 103 Plymouth Windsor 120 100 Franklin Wallingford Georges Mills Ludlow Mount New London 7 Ascutney Claremont 30 Newport West Pawlet 103 Goshen Springfield 89 Dorset Peru 11 11 Charlestown Contoocook Londonderry Manchester Grafton 10 Concord 103 91 9 NEW YORK Green 100 Mountain Jamaica Stodard National Forest Antrim Mount Snow Newfane Shaftbury 12 Hancock 7 Keene 9 9 Woodford 101 Wilmington Marlborough Peterborough Bennington 124 Brattleboro Long Trail 112 202 5 0 20 40km QUÉBEC (Canada) 55 Coaticook 0 15 30mi Sutton 243 133 Lac 147 C A N A D A 237 139 Memphrémagog É T A T S - U N I S Alburg Richford 105 North Troy Derby Line Beecher Norton Falls Swanton Jay Peak Newport 105 100 114 111 2 Troy 91 89 108 242 Island Pond St. Albans Lowell Orleans 105 36 Bloomfield 100 5a Bakerfield 109 14 Barton Westmore Grand Isle North Stratford East Haven Cambridge Jeffersonville West Burke South Hero Hyde Park 114 Lac Mount Guildhall Champlain Mansfield 16 Morrisville Lyndonville Winooski 108 100 Hardwick Lyndon Stowe 2 Burlington 15 St. Johnsbury Hunger Cabot 3 Worcester Shelburne Mountain 14 2 Danville Waterbury 93 12 Marshfield Littleton Charlotte Barnet 116 Montpelier 302 Plainfield 7 Sugar Hill Waitsfield Lisbon 17 Barre Groton Franconia Vergennes 302 110 N Bristol Warren 12 Newbury Addison 112 116 12a Randonnée 25 100 91 White Mountain National Forest Middlebury 89 Bradford 25 118 125 Chelsea Green Hancock 93 Mountain Randolph Warren National Forest Fairlee 25a Rochester Campton 113 Brandon 73 Mount Bethel Horrid pédestre Mount Independence Lyme Plymouth State Historic Site 100 Blue Ridge 118 Pittsford Mountain Barnard 30 Norwich Hanover 22a Deer Leap NEW Proctor Mountain 12 Fair Mendon Pico Peak HAMPSHIRE Haven Quechee Rutland Killington Lebanon Peak Hartland 4 Le Vermont Plainfield Clarendon Shrewsbury 106 140 Grantham 103 Plymouth Windsor 120 100 Franklin Wallingford Georges Mills Ludlow Mount New London 7 Ascutney Claremont Long Trail 7 La région 30 Newport West Pawlet 103 du Camel’s Hump 36 Goshen Springfield 89 Le mont Mansfield Dorset Peru 11 11 Charlestown Contoocook et le nord La région Londonderry Manchester Grafton 10 Concord du Vermont 10 de Rutland – 103 91 9 NEW YORK Green 100 Killington Peak Mountain Jamaica Stodard National Forest La région du lac 46 Antrim Willoughby 31 Mount Snow Newfane Shaftbury 12 Hancock Index 57 7 Keene 9 9 Woodford 101 Wilmington Marlborough Peterborough Bennington 124 Brattleboro Long Trail 112 202 ulyssesguides.com 6 e Vermont porte à merveille son nom. Partout, on y voit de superbes vallées et de magnifiques mon- L tagnes où la couleur verte domine. Au milieu de ce vert tantôt flamboyant, tantôt apaisant, se découpent une petite maison bleue, une grange rouge ou une église en bois toute de blanc vêtue. L’histoire raconte que le nom de Vermont (« vert mont ») fut donné à ce coin de pays en 1763 par le révérend père Samuel Peters. Alors qu’il était au sommet de la deuxième montagne la plus élevée de l’État, le mont Killington (1 293 m) qu’il avait gravi à cheval, Samuel Peters trouva que ce nom allait à ravir à l’immensité de ce paysage. En fait, les habitants préfèrent parler de « Green Mountain ». De nos jours, que l’on parle de club de randonnée, d’artisanat, d’antiquités, de nourri- ture, de sirop d’érable, de café, etc., on retrouve immanquablement les mots « Green Mountain » dans le nom de l’entreprise ou du produit! Partout au Vermont, on sent la fierté des gens envers leur État. D’ailleurs, beaucoup d’Américains viennent s’y installer afin de vivre en harmonie avec la nature et les gens. La vie au Vermont est paisible et semble couler plus doucement que dans les États voisins. D’ailleurs, la société de consommation n’affecte pas le paysage des Vermontois, les panneaux publicitaires y étant interdits le long des routes. Le Vermont est un tout petit État qui fait 257 km de long et moins de 150 km en son point le plus large (au nord). Peu peuplé, le Vermont compte 630 000 habitants, ce qui en fait le troisième plus petit État du pays. Sa capitale, Montpelier, ne comprend que près de 8 000 habi- tants, et la plus grande ville de l’État est Burlington (42 000 habitants). Les montagnes sont partout présentes dans le paysage du Vermont, et la forêt s’étend sur près de 75% du territoire. C’est le seul des six États de la Nouvelle-Angleterre à ne pas avoir d’accès à l’océan Atlantique. Il est dit que, si vous voulez insulter un Vermontois, demandez- lui le chemin qui mène à la mer. La chaîne des montagnes Vertes (Green Mountains) traverse l’État du nord au sud, soit du Québec au Massachusetts. Cette chaîne de montagnes est sillonnée d’un sentier unique: le célèbre Long Trail.

  • Vermont Watchable Wildlife Survey
    A Report Submitted to: The Vennont Departmentof Fish and Wildlife By Walter F. Kuentzel and Gino J.M. Giumarro Schoolof Natural Resources University of Vermont Burlingto~ VT 05405 2 2000 Vermont Watch able Wildlife Survey Consumptive wildlife activities, such as hunting and fishing, have traditionally dominated recreational use of nature in rural areas.However, social attitudes and patterns of wildlife recreation have changed over the last 25 years, and "nonconsumptive" wildlife recreation has become an important part of wildlife agency's management strategies. This study representsone effort by the Vermont Department ofFish and Wildlife to understandthe behaviors of"nonconsumptive" wildlife users in Vermont, and their attitudes towards watchable wildlife. This research also explores how wildlife watchers' attitudes and behaviors may have changed over the last 10 years. Researchers in the 1970's began to notice a shift in the attitudes of consumptive wildlife users. Heberlein (1991) has identified several attitude changes in society that help explain these attitude changes.He found that: (1) in the mid 1970's, at least half of the U.S. residents opposed hunting (2) women and urban residents had the most negative attitudes toward hunting, (3) increasing numbers of people feel that killing for pleasure, bonding, and tradition is inappropriate, and that better alternatives to these activities exist, and (4) there are increasingly popular theories of conservation and preservation. Heberlein (1991) also writes that women have an increasing influence in society and consequently in wildlife recreation. These changing attitudes about hunting and wildlife have led to decreasesin hunting participation and increases in wildlife watching participation.
