August 19, 1780
On the morning of August 19, 1780, about 200 mounted Patriots arrived near Musgrove Mill, then the site of a British outpost. You can hike the rugged terrain where they lured a greater number of British Provincials and Loyalist troops into a deadly trap. Using unconventional tactics, the Patriots earned a much-needed victory and helped rally those fighting for independence.
