My wife and I visited Wilson’s Creek while on a summer vacation. The visitor center was very interesting. They had a topographical map on which the battle was replayed with lights indicating troop movements and batteries. We drove around the battlefield on the tour road. It was 95 degrees out, so we only got out of the car once — at the Ray House. This is the only building still standing that was there at the time of the battle.
