Redbud Run
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: August 26, 2007
Caption: Redbud Run
Additional Description: At around 3 in the afternoon, Duval's Division arrived here. With Duval wounded, future president Hayes took command of the division and advanced down the embankment and across the creek. The drop here is around 30 to 40 feet to the creek bottom. Another marker a few hundred yards down the trail is at a better vantage point to visualize the undertaking this would have been on just a normal day. The Federals led by Hayes, and the added difficulty of Confederate fire further prohibiting their movement.
