About the maps
TrailTripTip: To find monument NY11 1/2, continue south on Route 4 out of Village of Fort Edward and watch for monument on right at the intersection of road to Fort Miller and Lock #6 of the Champlain Canal.

Context: From fragments in the journal we know that Knox headed off on his own southward from Fort George toward Albany on December 24th, passing this point.

During the next two weeks, the sleds carrying the guns southward from Fort George toward Albany would wend their way past this point in the road as well.
