It was a dark and ominous day when we ventured off with Jim Ogden, head historian of the Chickamauga Battlefield. It is always very informative hike when Mr. Ogden leads us and explains some of the battles and other events surrounding the battle at Chickamauga. On this day, which never rained, we visited Snodgrass Hill and Mr. Ogden explained what happened there. It is so interesting to hear the history of what actually happened there from both the Confederate and Union sides. I believe there were eight of us on this hike and not a single complaint. The temperature ranged from the mid 60’s to the low 70’s on this 3.4 mile hike which I would rate as easy.
If you would like to see some photographs and a map of this hike, click here. Also, anyone can identify the fungus I photographed in the fairy ring that I photographed, please let me know. I have never seen this particular fungus in a fairy ring before.
