Description
"And from the earth there sprang a host of men..." On June 27, 1864, some of the heaviest and most desperate fighting of the American Civil War would take place on a spur in rural Georgia. This Ranger-led history hike will be moderately difficult, so be sure to bring plenty of water and comfortable shoes.
