Bluemont's name was specifically chosen to describe the essence of the countryside around the village; a name to entice Washingtonians to by-pass the many villages to its east and spend their summers in this hamlet nestled among the pines along the Blue Ridge.
Pictures in this gallery were taken by J Riley Stewart within the town, and along Snickersville Turnpike, Yellow Schoolhouse Road, Williams Gap Road, Foggy Bottom Road, and Ebenezer Church Road, near Bluemont.
