I will be visiting the Cedar Mountain Battlefield on Monday. This will be my first visit to this American Civil War venue. Based on fellow member's feedback, it will take me about 4 hours to tour this battlefield.

This is a vintage photo of a cabin located on Crittenden Lane.

Question : Was this photo taken from modern Route 15 (North James Madison HWY) towards The Gate (old Crittenden Lane) or Route 657 (parallel to Route 15) towards The Gate?

I found my answer in the Blue & Gray magazine regarding this ACW battle. Timothy O'Sullivan took this photograph and he captured this photo looking northwest towards the Crittenden gate.
