The Battle of Lookout Mountain at Bald Hill

  • Cummings Bottom 3100 Parker Lane Chattanooga, TN, 37419 United States (map)

Union General Joseph Hooker’s demonstration along the lower reaches of Lookout Creek did much to prevent a meaningful response to the northerner’s simultaneous flank attack along the western slopes of the Lookout Mountain. The most significant landmark for many in this usually forgotten part of the “Battle Above the Clouds” was a prominent mostly open and cultivated hill. Join National Military Park Historian Jim Ogden for this 2 ½ hour 2 ½ mile walking tour of this less explored part of the Lookout Mountain Battlefield.
