Map of Battle of Glorieta Pass

Sharpshooter Ridge This photograph was taken in 1990 from Sharpshooter's Ridge, just north of Pigeon's Ranch. It was the location of the Union right flank during the last day's battle. Much of the land in and around the battlefield remains intact because of its isolation from cities and the nature of the terrain. Questions for Photo 2 1. Why was Sharpshooter's Ridge a strategic position for the Colorado Volunteers serving in the Union army? 2. Do you think it is important to preserve the battlefield from any future development and change? Why or why not?

Impact of the Confederate Invasion Activity 2: Impact of the Confederate Invasion Have the class examine Peticolas' diary entry in Reading 2 and discuss the following questions: 1. What evidence does he include about a local residence? 2. Why do you think there were no people at the house? 3. When the people who lived at the house returned to their home after the battle how do you think they might have felt when they discovered that soldiers had broken into their home and slept there using the woman's clothes like a blanket? 4. How do you think the residents might have felt if they returned to their ranch to find bodies of dead or wounded soldiers or fresh graves? 5. Do you think that individuals holding either strong Union or Confederate views would react differently than those who held to the frontier tradition of helping out those in need? Why or why not?
