Free
Ross’s Landing West (Meet at Brown’s Ferry Road Trail, 707 Moccasin Bend Road, Chattanooga, TN):
Beginning at 2 pm, this 90 minute program will feature a walk along traces of one of the actual Indian Removal routes – the road across Moccasin Bend leading to Brown’s Ferry on the Tennessee River.  It will discuss both removal parties of June and October 1838, as the Cherokee were transported west by land and water.  Come learn about aspects of a history that shaped peoples, a region, and nations on some of the very ground where it happened.
