Vicksburg and the Mississippi River 3D Topographic Map
Couldn't load pickup availability
Vicksburg sits on high loess bluffs above the Mississippi, the ground that made it the key to the river in the siege of 1863. This map covers the city and Vicksburg National Military Park on the bluffs, the Mississippi River and the Yazoo Diversion Canal, and the flat Louisiana floodplain across the water. The rivers print in blue, the wooded bluffs and ravines in dark green, farm fields in caramel, and the city and open ground in tan. The relief is gentler than a mountain map, but the line of bluffs rising above the floodplain is easy to see and feel. Trenches and monuments are far too small for this scale. A good gift for a Civil War reader, a Vicksburg native, or anyone with roots on the river.

Burning & care
Burning & care
Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before each burn. On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edge of the jar (about 2 to 3 hours) so it does not tunnel.
Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time, on a heat-safe surface, away from drafts, pets and children. Stop when about 1/2 inch of wax remains.
