The high point of the Confederacy can be considered the summer of 1863, particularly the Battle of Gettysburg and the victory at Vicksburg. The Confederate Army, under General Robert E. Lee, achieved significant victories early in the Civil War, culminating in Lee's invasion of the North. However, the simultaneous loss at Gettysburg and the fall of Vicksburg marked a turning point, leading to a decline in Confederate fortunes and morale. After these events, the Confederacy struggled to maintain its strength and resources in the face of Union advancements.

Here the answer does revolve around the surrender of the South, but in each case it involves a period in which a major victory was won, and , or the reaction to it.The question regarding a Southern high point involves a subjective answer. One could easily see that the defeat of the Union in the ill fated Peninsula campaign in 1862, placed the Union in an embarrassing situation, and a huge Federal army had to retreat, after a perfect plan had been evolved.
