Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: September 17, 2008
Caption: Spangler's Spring
Additional Description: Looking from across Spangler's Meadow at the marker location and parking area (on the far right behind the boulders). The contest in this sector of the battlefield was for possession of the high ground in the distant center, near where Slocum Avenue snakes up Culp's Hill. Spangler's Spring, seen here on the left near the road intersection, and Meadow were scenes of heavy fighting on July 3 as Federals attempted to dislodge the Confederates from that high ground.
