The Study Area includes the starting point of the Federal probing movement south toward Cane Hill, the starting point (Lee Creek camp) of the Confederate probing movement north toward Cane Hill, and the three engagement areas at Cane Hill, Fly Creek Valley, and Cove Creek.
The Cane Hill Core Area was revised to include more positions of Federal artillery. The Cove Creek Core Area was added to illustrate the location of the Confederate ambush that decided the outcome of the battle.
