The observation tower is gone. The visitors center is being replaced. The field is being or has been restored to the 1863 vegetation.

I have been to Chickamaugua and not enjoyed it as much because it is not easy to envision the battle. Antietam is one that is very pristine and emotional for me.

Re Gettysburg, I had limited time there as I also visited the new museum in Harrisburg. The lighted map is being discontinued with the new visitors center so I did that again. I then walked over to the copse of trees where the Confederate high water mark was reached. It was very inspiring - again.

One other Civil War site I recommend is Franklin, Tennessee. There was a bigger charge there on Nov 30, 1864 than Pickett's at G'burg.
