Two tall granite columns crowned with bronze eagles flank a curving path through lawn and trees at Valley Forge. The caption says the columns mark the beginning of the Pennsylvania Camp Sites and names Gen. Anthony Wayne as commander; the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania erected the memorial. The surrounding ground preserves the winter encampment of George Washington's Continental Army in 1777–78.
