Caption:
The Cornfield Today | Additional Description: Looking back toward the intersection of Cornfield Avenue and Dunker Church Road (Old Hagerstown Pike), the car on the left is parked in the pull off for tour stop four. The 1st Texas surged through from the left between that pull off and the camera's spot. They advance to the right of the view, nearly due north into the cornfield. The advance was atop a "plateau" running north to south through this sector of the battle area. As can be seen from the angle of the photograph, in only a few yards, the elevation rises and falls considerably.
