The stone observatory on the Bloody lane is now finished and ready for visitors. The view from this point alone is worth a visit to the famous Bloody lane as you can take in the entire right to the left nearly four miles. There will be, when all planted, nearly four hundred markers, giving one a good idea of the entire battle field with the advantage of the good roads. Every body ought to visit it and make a study of this great battle.
99 Places Every Antietam Battlefield Guide Should Know

I have put my "99 Places Every Antietam Battlefield Guide Should Know" online. It is a work in progress and is currently a bit of a mess, but I thought it would be fun to get suggestions before I spent too much time adding some new places I have learned about. For the record, this is not a list of obvious places a guide should know. These are those special places that guides have discovered that are fun to share with those who really care about minutia. Right now there are still some easy places on the list, but my hope is that will change soon. Any suggestions?
