Caption: Lee's View of the Battlefield
Additional Description: From a point close to the the spot the marker stood, looking towards Fairview. When General Lee looked across the ground on May 3, 1863, there were more open fields. The tree lines have been cut back some, but with a mind to preserving some of the viewshed, the park service has left some of the tree lines in place in order to mask noise and visibility of the nearby highway (and housing developments).
