I also love Antietam. I took a pic by the tree about 8 to 10 years ago.

During a recent visit I overheard a guide say there are also witness trees in the West Woods. Is this true? Thanks for the great information.

Yes but they are back off the foot trail as I recall. Not as visible and definitely not as photographed. The Burnside tree has probably been photographed more than any other tree anywhere, from September 1862 to now.

That tree probably has bullets buried in it .

Excellent, but dump the music-it’s way too distracting and doesn’t add any info
