BATTLE OF SNOQUALMIE (U.S. Civil War re-enactment) 2016 AUGUST 13-14 at Snoqaulmie, Washington, USA.
I enjoy military history and also taking action photos. Civil War re-enactments cover both of those for me.
My wife and I attended this event in Sunday August 14 and found that all of the re-enactors were very friendly and hospitable. There was of course no real “Battle of Snoqualmie” as this was simply the available location for the event. It was hot that day and one cannot help but admire the fortitude of the re-enactors dressed in woolen uniforms or hoop skirts. Images were taken in high resolution but are shown here at 1024 lower resolution which looks good on computers and is reasonably fast to load.
