Jim Hunt (hikerjimhunt@hotmail.com or 804-730-2364) The National Park Service has set up 3.5 miles of very interesting trails through this major battlefield which protected Richmond during the War for Southern Independence. The battle was June 3, 1864 and this hike is 150 years and one day after that date and I am sure the national park service will have the park in top condition. From I-295, take Exit 34 Creighton Rd. (Rte. 615) east to VA 156, right turn (South) on VA 156 for 2.5 miles to the ranger station on Cold Harbor Road. Meet at 9:50 am.
