ORWELL, Vt. - Clifford Mullen, period interpreter, demonstrates how to find an ‘East to West’ line with a compass made of sticks and shadows at Mount Independence, Orwell, Vt., Feb. 6, 2106. The shadow of the stick moves to represent the sun’s travels from east to west. Officers of the unit were performing a staff ride while studying ‘Rogers’ Rangers’ and military strategy of the French and British during The Second Battle on Snowshoes in 1758.
