About this map

Bluemont sits at the foot of the Blue Ridge mountains, a historic gateway defined by Snickers Gap and the Snickersville Tpke. This 2010 survey of western Loudoun County preserves a landscape of equestrian estates and long-established rural hamlets. The network of winding roads, such as Airmont Rd and Jeb Stuart Rd, connects historically significant settlements like Unison, Bloomfield, and the Quaker-influenced village of Saint Louis.

Evidence of the region's agricultural and social heritage is visible in the placement of the Ebenezer Cemetery and South Fork Cemetery, alongside prominent family-named estates like Welbourne and Old Welbourne. Water features like Beaverdam Creek and Sleeter Lake define the drainage patterns of the valley. The map also records unique local landmarks, including the Flying Horse Farm Balloonport, illustrating how modern recreation integrates with the area’s traditional land use.
