Re: Champion Hill "re-enactment"

What's on private land? Champion Hill? The re-enactment? Hovey's gun position? The mound? If the latter, do you know what mound they are using? If the former, doesn't the state own 90% of the land now?

The Confederate guns will be firing from Matilda Champion's House, towards "the mound" where Hovey's guns were supposedly sitting. But the house can't be seen from the position of Hovey's guns ... in fact, there's not even a LOS to the house. Call it nitpicking if you want, I'm just intrigued to know what mound they are using for this.
