1759 Battle Reenactment: 1759 Battle on Snowshoes
Experience the third Battle on Snowshoes as Major Robert Roger’s and his rangers go on “A Grand Scout” before the 1759 campaign season! During this epic Battle Reenactment, visit the French garrison of Fort Carillon (later named Ticonderoga) in the middle of winter and tour pickets of British rangers, veterans of raids, ambushes, and scouts in the ongoing winter war. Witness Roger’s Rangers–frostbitten and cold–ambush French soldiers cutting wood across the ice of Lake Champlain. Follow French soldiers out of Fort Carillon as they attempt to rescue their fellow soldiers fighting for their lives on the ice.
