Last weekend, I had the pleasure to attend the 250th reenactment of the Battle of Fort Ticonderoga. This was the biggest and best French and Indian War reenactment that I have ever seen. Here are some of the pictures that I took. This first group of images are from the Friday night reenactment. The scenario was the death of Lord Howe and it took place in a park in the town of Ticonderoga. I will be posting more images thought the week. Enjoy!

Thanks for posting the fine pictures and report on the reenactment. I went to one there in 2002 and wanted to go this year but my buddy said gas is too high and we decided too late to go. I really enjoy the Lake George area. Leadmen

Great pictures. I can attest that it was hot and humid there on Friday. So anyone who participated in those outfits was a real trooper. BTW: the Gettysburg reenactment is this weekend.

Yes, it was very hot and humid all weekend and they fought in the rain on Saturday. I can’t wait for Gettysburg this weekend. I think the official web site said that they are expecting to have 500 horses!!! Two great back to back reenactments. Life doesn’t get much better.

Awesome Pics! I look forward to one day visiting there. I served on the USS Ticonderoga for 3 years. We are trying to save the ship at the moment.

Hello Bryan,
thanks for the pictures. That must have been quite an experience.
I shot a muzzle loader once and can only imagine how it sounds when 40 or 50 of them are fired at a time.
A pleasure to see this.

By chance about four years ago, I visited the fort with my Father and a small reenactment was going on. It was fun to walk through the camp and the fort with the participants. I try to attend reeanctment events in the Chicagoland area.
