Vermont is the smallest landlocked state in the U.S. and is located in the New England region, bordering Quebec to the north, New York and New Hampshire to the west and east, and Massachusetts to the south. Lake Champlain is shared with New York and Quebec and is the 8th largest natural freshwater lake in the contiguous United States and the largest lake in Vermont. Vermont's eastern border is the Connecticut River, the longest river in New England. Vermont's hydrology is largely composed of cold mountain streams and deep alpine lakes and is made out of four drainage basins; the Hudson, Connecticut, Champlain, and Saint-François drainage basins, all of which flow into the Atlantic Ocean either via the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, Long Island Sound, or New York Bay.
