"We visit places such as Jumonville Glen because of characters in history! George Washington is that character here. When walking the trail, a sense of awe ran over me, just knowing he walked here, and the events that took place here magnified those feelings! Combine Jumonville Glen with Fort Necessity and Braddocks grave to fully appreciate the history that happened in this area. The walk itself is fairly easy. Several rock outcrops greet you along the way, making for an enjoyable walk through the woods! This place is incredible! If U.S. history is your thing, this is one place where it all began, and you need to visit"
