Did the 20th Maine go it alone to Big Round Top?

I was reading Alice Trulock's "In the Hands of Providence" and she states that the 20th Maine crept up Big Round Top. They were later joined by the Pennsylvania Reserves. Can anybody confirm this?

There were elements of Berdans on their left flank there as well & IIRC other units were on their right flank. Though I'll have to dig to see who they were. Gettysburg is not my forte.

The Union units involved on BRT on day 2 are discussed in one of my posts in the topic:
