Mountain Views on Sparrow Farm Road in Montpelier
February 12, 2011
I drove the back roads of Montpelier on my way to work on Friday. The temperature was -2, the sun was out and the sky was icy blue. I love this part of Montpelier, and I need to explore it more often. Sparrow Farm Road, located north of downtown Montpelier, offers some of the best views I’ve seen of Vermont’s Worcester Mountain Range.
It’s been more than a year since I’ve been to this part of Montpelier, and perhaps the first time I’ve visited this area in the winter. Since it was so cold out, I didn’t take as many photos as I had hoped. But when it warms up, even to just 25 degrees or so, I’ll be back.

Hi Susan, you’re right — spring will be glorious. I’m really looking forward to it! Hope all is well!
