Bakerton Road
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: July 28, 2007
Caption: Bakerton Road
Additional Description: Modern Bakerton Road runs the valley between Schoolhouse Ridge and Bolivar Heights. During the battle for Harpers Ferry on 14 September 1862, Federals pushed skirmishers out into the valley as an early warning to Confederate advances. Unfortunately, this was a rather exposed position.
