View to the redoubt from directly across the Alma: it is right between the bushes. Two sides of the redoubt can be seen easily. The white monument is in the back. Kourgane hill is behind it. Large Russian battalion mass formations were left and right of the redoubt. There were 12 heavy guns in the redoubt.
