Tour Update 4/6/2016 – ITINERARY

Here is a preliminary itinerary for the tour. More to follow. Note the walking – not too fast, but some rolling terrain. Dress for the weather. Hydration, long pants, and sturdy shoes recommended. Pay no attention to the attire exhibited on televised Gettysburg ranger-led walks. Keep abreast of developments here and on Facebook. Note the absolute necessity to car pool. We’ll probably need 4 people per vehicle. Here’s a nice, zoomable park map.
