The Devil’s Den dead

Sources attach this name to the 1 place below. The name itself is part of the folklore record.

The Devil's Den dead — the sharpshooters who fought and died in the boulder field — are said to still hold the rocks: figures among the boulders, cameras failing in the Den. The legend is anchored by Gardner's famous staged photograph of the dead sharpshooter in the 'nest.' The boulder field keeps its sharpshooters.
