GDG- Iverson's Pits Question

[William Nolan]

Hello...   We spend last weekend at Gettysburg and wanted to find Iverson 's Pits.    We spend several hours walking the field at Iverson's attack and found nothing that looked to be shallow pits.   I came to the conclusion that the pits are filled in and are no longer an identifiable landmark where you can point to them and say "Aha, here they are!"   Is that correct, or did I simply miss them.   So, where are/were Iverson's pits in relation to other landmarks, such as the 99th PA monument (with Sallie the dog), the Oak Ridge tower, or the 88th Pa monument which is located in an advanced position?    There was a small Confederate flag located within 10 paces of the 88 PA monument and I though that might mark the approximate location of the burial trench.   Anyone know?
 
I want to also confirm that the view from the top of Houck's ridge is awesome with the trees gone!  Incredible!   To be able to look west from Houck's ridge and see clear across the Emmitsburg road is a sight I am glad I have lived long enough to see.   It certainly gives a whole new perspective to that area of the battlefield.   For example, I had no idea that the Slyder farm is as close to the Slaughter pen as it actually is.   This is a view that you just simply want to sit there and drink it all in.
 
Bill
