You can tell Gary is super excited about the reopening. He is even more geeked up than he is normally.

I was sad Little Round Top was closed last September when I toured the site! Now that it is open I must go back!

I did a Civil War tour this weekend, I went to Chancellorsville, Antietam, Harper's Ferry, Wilderness, Spotsylvania and Fredericksburg and I must say you guys and your videos are awesome. I watched them beforehand to get a good idea of what to see and look for. You guys do awesome work!

That little round top map the artist made is incredible. It's super nostalgic, it looks exactly like the drawings from that book I got handed down from my grandfather to my father then to me. It was my favorite book as a kid. I looked at all those battlefield maps almost everyday growing up

Wow! Little Round Top looks great! I've been there many times, now I see I've got to go back.

My favorite place on the entire battlefield. Little Round Top is finally open again. In 2022 I was in Gettysburg for the first time and unfortunately I couldn't go up there. The Park Service really did a fantastic job and the whole area looks great. Thank you for the guided tour over the revised site.

Two big wins on the day Little Round Top reopened. First, of course, was the reopening itself after a nearly two year wait. And we just HAPPENED to be there on the big day! Second, we encountered Garry and his crew, which was an enormous treat! We've seen much of his content on KZfaq and have been impressed from the start by his CRAZY command of the history, his absolutely infectious energy and his obvious love of the subject matter. We had a few minutes to chat with this rock star, and he was so normal and gracious. FANS FOR LIFE!!!!!

We used a licensed battlefield guide when we toured the park a dozen years ago, and it definitely improves the experience as you hear stories about parts of the battlefield you would otherwise just roll by and be unaware of. These folks definitely know the details of the battle and the park. HIGHLY recommend it.

Great video, Gary..! Been going to this battlefield as a kid since 1967.!! LRT is always a highlight for battlefield attendees. This is the most user friendly I have ever seen the Little Roundtop. Stong Vincent and Warren are smiling from above... salute.

Nicely done, may the men who fought and died on this battlefield feel the love we have for this place.

One of these days I'm going to Gettysburg. My supervisor went to Gettysburg, then traveled south to Antietam and Bull Run/Manassas...wish I could've went with him!!!

Thank you so much for mentioning Morrel's Co. B and the Sharpshooters. They played a decisive supporting role in the charge. Thank you so much!

David Greenspan smiles at knowing the inspiration of his map art. Great tribute.

So happy it's re-opened. It was nice having progress videos to see while the work was being done. Looks awesome!!

I was lucky to visit Gettysburg just before Little Round Top closed but great to see it reopened and the visitor experience enhanced - great job 👍

Thank You Gary.. Starting off at the seldom visited 146th NY (5th Oneida) My hometown regiment tht faced its real firefight in Saunders Field a year later!

Awesome artwork, Dave! Having studied this battle since first reading Michael Shaara's, The Killer Angels, while I was a young midshipman at the Naval Academy in 1985, and having walked the ground and imagined the scenes many times since, it's great to finally be able to see an "aerial" view of this part of Day 2 of the battle. It is amazing how accurate it is relative to everything I've studied. It's also really cool that on my next visit, with my family, we will all be able to put a face to this particular interpretive sign--now a true part of the history of the battlefield.

The park rangers have to have the greatest job in the world.

Very sad to see all of that fencing. Too bad that they didn't just fix the trails. Now, it's more like they're hearding cattle along chosen paths and you can't go along where you want. I'm so glad that I have been there so many times before. I'll hold on to those memories.

Outstanding video, folks. Adding the bird's-eye view and the illustrator is awesome.

American Heritage was my 10 year old me battlefield maps - You need to do this interpretation style on every battlefield!!!! Thank You

The excellent map giving an excellent interpretation of Vincent's Brigade.? I always understood the Union forces were along the military crest but this suggests they were actually further downhill that makes sense because of the artillery near the summit and also a degree of conformity of 16th Michigan to what was going on Devil's Den/Wheatfield. Thence the weakness that the 140th New York plugged. Please also John Pullen's book as well occasionally.. it's not just the Killer Angels and film.

I can't wait to get back to see Little Round Top!

I'm heading out there later this summer from WI and really looking forward to it. It's been on my bucket list since I was a little kid.

@AmericanBattlefieldTrust ...excellent coverage of Gettysburg 161. Looking forward to more of the same!

Thanks for the walk around of Little Round Top. Next visit I will have to stop at the 83rd PA monument. The regiment commander Orpheus Woodward is buried 45 minutes from my home in Neosho Falls, KS

Just an outstanding job in making a visit to LRT a more meaningful and safe experience. Well-explained by the three of you. Just outstanding!!

Love Gettysburg time on this channel

What Little Round Top was closed? 😊. Its nice to see that its open for the 161st anniversary for all those lucky ones that will be there they will get to see the new updates. For those of us that wont be there😢 it's great to have ABT give us a tour. Thanks Garry, Kris, Sarah & ABT & the Park Rangers!

We was there the day Little Round Top opened. Seen the News on our tour and went up the hill the next day.

Never been into the history (I’m 42) until I found this channel about 7 months ago and have watched every video avail and read a few books now about Gettysburg. Its opened me up to more battles as well and just appreciate the energy, preservation and dedication everyone on this channel brings each video. Been saving for 3 months to be able to travel from the west coast and tour Gettysburg and almost to my goal. Appreciate the videos. Yall are awesome

Outstanding video ... thank you!

Thanks Garry, I bought an Irish brigade cap for myself and a Berdan's sharpshooter for my son 😅

LRT is beautiful! Ive been there many times,now I will be able to go to places that I couldn't get to before. Cant wait to see it in person.

Really fantastic, this is on my bucket list to visit from Australia. Well done All.

Can’t wait to get back there, hopefully in the fall 😎👍

I love that hat Garry. Great video too.

Great video guys can’t wait for the next two days

I can’t wait to see it this weekend!

I attended Gettysburg College and ran cross country. The trail looks great for the next generation of runners

I always wonder how much thought the men who fought this war would give to specific places and times. We spend hours looking at specific things that happened. For them it was just a moment in their lives.

The map/graphic on the board in the gathering area, produced by Chris Geister, is an example of a Perspective View. This could be called “a Perspective View from Above Little Round Top looking West”.

Loving this content! I took the whole week off to be able to enjoy it,without worrying about work.

Sick upgrades!

Looks great, can’t wait to see it for myself 😎👍

I recall the view at 7:50, was once covered by many trees that were removed...

RIP To the 134 Union troops and 279 Confederate troops who were killed in Little Round Top during the Battle of Gettysburg

You missed the name change - the Valley of Death is now the Valley of Beaver Life

Can’t wait to tour LRT with the CCWP in October!

If one has the ability to actually see this particular battle in their mind, one will eventually come to the conclusion that this fight was terrifying. At the same time, knowing these troops went forward and up, and shot downward with no inhibitions of what was demanded of them and what was at stake. A killing field of fire, and ideologies. Strange to me how I can hear and see, feel and smell these actions. 🇺🇸

“You mean chahhge?” Good one Chris hahaha

How do we go about getting a little round top tour from Gary Adelman?

I want the brand of energy drink that Gary drinks!

Gary is infectious

Joshua Chamberlain,his Sabre saved him.Was shot at and the bullet hit his sabre.

Melcher was commanding Company F, the color company, during this battle.

If anyone knows of a KZfaq video showing each new interpretive sign, I’d love to see it.

The good old 155th PA! Pittsburgh...

As always thanks guys. Awesome stuff

👍👍

HAIL STRONG VINCENT!!!!!!!

What kind of relics did they find when they were digging .

Has there been a reenactment of the 20 th Maine and little round top?

Bayonetttttt!!!!

Hey, Gary where’d you get that leather haversack?

Nothing like adding historic chicken wire fencing and metal stakes...as well as silly large stone walls that were not present at the time of the battle.

Doing the work, were any artifacts found?

Anyone else hear the little voice at 23:13? Hahaha

It was Pickett that said the Yankees got all the smart ones.

Welp got to get a new hat.

I was up there on June 24th and it was closed. When did it open?

Southern Indepence was not at this Time

"swing like a dah"

Is it handicapped accessible?

Gov't speak for the pleb definition of gathering area is 'Interpreting Area'. Lord help us.

Gary exclaims," Good good!" at the 2:30 mark. Is this the birth of a new Gary response ? If yes, I'll always remember where I was when this happened...Wilkes-Barre Pa..a city so big it needs a hyphen. Carry on Gary.

when they placed the monument………….*

been there already and after seeing this guy I would never ever return

Dan Dan Butterfield Butterfield Butterfielddddd!

Your too much of a Yankee! How about you be neutral to both sides, its clear you favor the Union! Two sides fought not just the Union.
