2016 Map of Sherando

About this map

Mount Torry Furnace and the high ridges of the George Washington National Forest define the rugged topography along the Augusta and Nelson County border. This 2016 survey details the complex interface between the wilderness of the Appalachian National Scenic Trail and the development of Wintergreen. To the east, the S Fork Rockfish River drains the valley toward Nellysford and the Rockfish Airpark, while the western slopes near Stuarts Draft feature unique hydrological elements like the Maple Flat Ponds. The Blue Ridge Parkway snakes along the crest, passing landmarks such as Humpback Mtn and the The Rocks. Local heritage is preserved at Diamond Hill Cem and the Wintergreen Cem, offering points of interest for genealogists tracing family ties in the Virginia mountains.
