'''Vermont''' is a state in [[New England]], named for its "green mountains".
The two major interstates in Vermont are [[I-89]] and [[I-91]]. Hitchhiking here is restricted to the onramps, as in most US states. I-91 parallels the Connecticut River along the eastern side of the state. It's the main artery for traveling to points North ([[Montreal]], [[Sherbrooke]], [[Quebec City]]) or South ([[New York]], [[Springfield]], [[Hartford]]). Most of the exits along the way lead to small towns, which can sometimes make for very little traffic. In fact, aside from [[St. Johnsbury]], [[Brattleboro]] and [[White River Junction]], there really aren't any high-traffic onramps, so don't get stuck in small towns like [[Ascutney]]. I-89 starts in [[St.Albans]], by the [[Quebec]] border and goes southeast to [[Concord]], [[New Hampshire]], passing through the lone city the state capitol of [[Montpelier]], and White River Junction. On the western portion, from the border to Montpelier it's easy to get a ride, but between [[Barre]] and White River Junction there's not a lot of traffic getting on. ==CitiesTowns==
