[[File:2022-06-23 16.29.45.png|thumb|A view of Southern Downtown Bluemont from Lakeshore Street]]'''Bluemont''' is a town on Puucraft's 11th map, founded by [[bluecrafter07]]. Located on a large island at coordinates 200 xX -3900 zZ, the town is modeled after an 19th-20th century American city. Bluemont also serves as one of Map 11's shopping hubs, with almost every building featuring something to sell. Neighboring towns include [[Kedeville]] to the west, and [[Renderdale]] beyond that.
 
== History ==
Line 7 ⟶ 8:
 
=== The Big Dig ===
Before being settled, Bluemont island was a very hilly place. As such, the island needed to be flattened in order to support structures. On August 24 2022, bluecrafterbluecrafter07 gathered players on the server to participate in a competition to dig out the lower half of downtown. Everyone worked diligently to dig out the area over a period of about 6 hours, and recievedreceived rewards for what they had dug.
 
The placings in the competition are as follows:
 
# VidruxVirdux - 130.5 stacks
# [[Existing_Player]] - 108.5 stacks
# DarkRobster - 68.5 stacks

=== Planting of the Town Tree ===
Bluemont did not have an actual name until September 4 2021, when the town tree was planted. Over time, the town tree has grown from a small sapling to a large tree with spreading branches, as seen below. [[File:2022-06-23 17.32.00.png|thumb|
