Another view of the field looking towards Phil Sheridan's positions
Terrain & Chinese privet, which Jim Ogden was skirmishing with during our talks
Into the Federal lines looking toward where the Confederates would be coming into battle
Lytle memorial-one of the Federal generals to fall during the battle
The memorial again-the cannon balls used to be stacked up high, but over the years they have been stolen....there is an effort being made to get thiss built back up again by September of this year.
The Chickamauga base map with ranger Jim Ogden.
Jim & Dave examining the Chickamauga map in the visitor center.

I don't think I realized how high the terrain was on Moccasin Point. I've never been out there. I didn't realize there was anything left there. Is it accessible to the public?

Yes sir! That is National Park property. You just have to park on the side of the road, then you can hike up there.

Please be aware, though, that the National Park property at Moccasin Point adjoins a mental hospital. I had a heckuva time convincing the staff there that Hellboy30 was not crazy and was not a denizen of the place. While I was successful, I think that they remained dubious of his status.

Gee Guthrie, if you're a stud, I must be one too. I have white hair and a mustache too.
