Rock Creek: A Wide and Formidable Obstacle

Cost: $12.50 per person

Speaker: Tim Smith, Adams County Historical Society

Located along the eastern boundary of the Gettysburg National Military Park, Rock Creek was a formidable barrier to the Southern advance on Culp’s Hill during the second and third day of the battle. But with virtually no public access, and very little historical interpretation, the role of Rock in the battle is overlooked by visitors and historians. Join Timothy H. Smith as he discusses the history and relevance of the creek named for its boulder-strewn appearance.
