The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

This area was one of our favorite in Yellowstone. It was beautiful, there were 2 waterfalls (the lower and upper falls) and in these pictures I think you can really see why it was named YELLOWstone, there is a yellow hue on all of the rocks. The yellowstone river flows through here and has carved out this canyon. I took a lot of pictures cuz they had lots of different places you could get pictures from different angles of the canyon.
The river just before the lower falls
the view from above the falls


a 308 foot drop to the bottom of the canyon:








We took a trail that included a 326 iron stair case to get a great view of the lower falls














and finally a little video of the area:
