NPS material dating to 1947 related to E.S. Luce and D. (Del) Condon
link who visted Luce's Ridge on Feb, 11th 1947, to photograph the area of battle related relic finds.
I couldn't turn up narrative to support the images but suspect it exists in NPS Yellowstone and LBH records. This would be some of the stuff inventoried and mapped by Greene in the early 1970's.

I have become seriously fond of image 23 and may do something quite special with it, like, blow it up.
