Here is a view from the hilltop of the area where Reno and his command retreated from the valley floor
If you will notice the upper left of the photo where the crossroads and the red looking building (formerly the Reno Benteen Battlefield Museum) is located.....This was the area where Reno's Battalion skirmished. The line extended across the present Interstate to the west. The retreat route to the hilltop was back across through the timbers and up this ravine to reach the hilltop defensive position
A little closer view of the river crossing at the foot of the ravine as seen through a 300mm lens
