Southwest Mountains
The
Southwest Mountains
of
Virginia
are a range parallel to and geologically associated with the
Blue Ridge Mountains
about 30 miles (
50 km
) to the west. The range bisects
Nelson
,
Albemarle
, and
Orange
counties. A portion of the Southwest Mountains in Albemarle County has been designated a Rural Historic District by the
National Park Service
. Mineral resources of
soapstone
and
vermiculite
continue to be mined here. The estates of
Thomas Jefferson
and
James Madison
were within the Southwest Mountains. The town of
Schuyler, Virginia
, the setting for the TV series
The Waltons
, is located on the eastern slope of the Southwest Mountains.
