TRAVEL TIP!

A Whodunit in the Laurel Highlands Just off the National Road (Route 40), near Fort Necessity National Battlefield, you’ll find Jumonville Glen, a secluded clearing marked with a rock outcropping and a sign. Early in his military career, George Washington led a group of nearly 40 men toward French troops, which resulted in a skirmish in that same clearing. No one knows who fired the first shot, but hundreds followed, leaving almost all of the Frenchmen dead or captured. laurelhighlands.org 800.333.5661 21
