Caption: 1st Texas Advances into Triangle Field
Additional Description: Looking up from the Triangle Field at the Devil's Den from a walking trail west of the high ground. The 1st Texas advanced up this slope to reach Smith's Battery, only to be pinned down and charged by the 124th New York. The 124th New York and 99th Pennsylvania Monuments can be seen on the skyline to the left. Smith's guns were in the center of this view. To the right are the rock outcroppings of Devil's Den. The foot trail is actually the trace of an old trolley line which brought visitors to the battlefield before the park existed.
