Missionary Ridge views

After blogger prevented me from posting pictures yesterday I thought I'd make up for it today with a post loaded with pictures.

This was taken from near the center of Missionary Ridge, near Anderson's Brigade marker. Orchard Knob is that big patch of green in the center, where the foreground road ends. The Illinois monument can be seen on the high ground.

This house can be seen from Orchard Knob, the plaque in the front yard is for Anderson's Brigade. I don't have a picture from Orchard Knob showing this house but I included it here so that you'll have a reference when you visit the land.
The next seven pictures are a panoramic taken from in front of the Anderson Brigade marker. From left to right they show the valley from south to north.








And then the next four pictures are a panoramic taken from the farthest south part of Missionary Ridge that offered a view of the valley. From left to right they show the valley from south to north.
