The Battle of Glorieta Pass has been described as the "Gettysburg of the West." While that description is a bit of artistic license, the battle was decisive and the largest engagement in the the American West. Located in the Pecos National Historical Park, this site at over 7500 feet of elevation is the highest major battlefield in the United States. We also spend some time at Fort Union, one of the major US forts along the Santa Fe trail. Join us as we explore America and go highpointing! #highpointing, #USCivilWar, #NewMexico
(On a side note you may notice I look a bit rough in this episode, that would be from us filming and successfully summiting Wheeler Peak, the New Mexico highpoint, the day before.)
