Description: The entrance to the Cherokee Removal Memorial Park — at the Hiwassee Wildlife Refuge in Meigs County, Tennessee. The park overlooks the Blythe Ferry site, where over 9000 Cherokee were ferried across the Tennessee River to begin the Trail of Tears in 1838 — a forced ethnic removal march from their homelands to Oklahoma.
