Hiking in Yellowstone - North Rim
Hiking at the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone NP: the North Canyon Rim. In 2018, it is the only area of the Grand Canyon that is open to the public…with the exception of the Brink of the Upper Falls trail. Starting at Lookout Point the hike travels the North Rim trail to Inspiration Point with overviews of the canyon walls and Yellowstone River. Returning to Lookout Point the hike then takes two descents; the first to Red Rock trail and the second to Brink of the Lower Falls, with great close-up views of the falls from the top…and great views of the river and canyon looking back toward Inspiration Point.

Yellowstone Falls consist of two major waterfalls on the Yellowstone River, within Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, United States. As the Yellowstone river flows north from Yellowstone Lake, it leaves the Hayden Valley and plunges first over Upper Yellowstone Falls and then a quarter mile (400 m) downstream over Lower Yellowstone Falls, at which point it then enters the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, which is up to 1,000 feet (304 m) deep.
Upper Yellowstone Falls
The upper falls ( WikiMiniAtlas44°42′46″N 110°29′59″W) are 109 feet (33 m) high. The brink of the upper falls marks the junction between a hard rhyolite lava flow and weaker glassy lava that has been more heavily eroded.
Lower Yellowstone Falls
Cascading from the 590,000 year old Canyon Rhyolite lava flow, Lower Yellowstone Falls is the largest volume waterfall in the Rocky Mountains of the United States.[citation needed] These falls (44°43′05″N 110°29′46″W) are 308 feet (94 m) high, or nearly twice as high as Niagara Falls. The volume of water flowing over Lower Yellowstone Falls can vary from 680 cu ft/s (19 m3/s) in the autumn, to 8,400 cu ft/s (240 m3/s) at peak runoff in late springtime.[citation needed] The flow rate of Lower Yellowstone Falls is much less than that of Niagara Falls, as the Yellowstone River is only 70 feet (21 m) at the point at which it goes over the lower falls, whereas the Niagara River is 2,600 feet (790 m) in width as it approaches the crest line of Horseshoe Falls.

YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK | GRAND CANYON OF YELLOWSTONE | LOWER FALLS | GRAND VIEW | RV LIFE | EP 81
NORTH RIM OF GRAND CANYON OF YELLOWSTONE, LOWER FALLS, LOOKOUT POINT, GRAND VIEW AND INSPIRATION POINT ALL IN WYOMING.
ℹ️About the episode: We took North Rim Drive along the Yellowstone River, which is a one-way loop that first hits the Lower Falls, then Look Out Point and ends at the Grand View. From there you can head further up to Inspiration Point on a two-way road. This is a scenic drive made in heaven.
The Grand View is a spectacular view of the Yellowstone River. It’s the force of this river that created the canyon and the falls, by water erosion rather than the result of glacial movement. It is the best location to view the canyon in BOTH directions.
Inspiration Point is a natural observation point on a steep cliff. This is on the north rim of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone…. just east of Yellowstone Falls on the Yellowstone River.
Don’t decide to “skip” walking DOWN the switchbacks to the LOWER FALLS. I almost did because I was “running on empty” this day. But knowing what I know now, this would have been a huge mistake. You do NOT want to miss seeing in person the power, and flow of this beautiful water. It is magical.

Artist Point, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, United States, North America
Artist Point is a cliff on the south rim of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone due west of Yellowstone Falls on the Yellowstone River in Yellowstone National Park. The point was originally named in 1883 by Frank Jay Haynes who improperly believed that the point was the place at which painter Thomas Moran sketched his 1872 depictions of the falls. Later work determined that the sketches were made from the north rim, but the name Artist Point stuck. Yellowstone National Park is a national park located primarily in the U.S. state of Wyoming, although it also extends into Montana and Idaho. It was established by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant on March 1, 1872. Yellowstone, widely held to be the first national park in the world, is known for its wildlife and its many geothermal features, especially Old Faithful Geyser, one of the most popular features in the park. It has many types of ecosystems, but the subalpine forest is dominant. It is part of the South Central Rockies forests ecoregion. Native Americans have lived in the Yellowstone region for at least 11,000 years. The region was bypassed during the Lewis and Clark Expedition in the early 19th century. Aside from visits by mountain men during the early-to-mid-19th century, organized exploration did not begin until the late 1860s. The U.S. Army was commissioned to oversee the park just after its establishment. In 1917, administration of the park was transferred to the National Park Service, which had been created the previous year. Hundreds of structures have been built and are protected for their architectural and historical significance, and researchers have examined more than 1,000 archaeological sites. Yellowstone National Park spans an area of 3,468.4 square miles (8,983 km2), comprising lakes, canyons, rivers and mountain ranges. Yellowstone Lake is one of the largest high-altitude lakes in North America and is centered over the Yellowstone Caldera, the largest supervolcano on the continent. The caldera is considered an active volcano. It has erupted with tremendous force several times in the last two million years. Half of the world's geothermal features are in Yellowstone, fueled by this ongoing volcanism. Lava flows and rocks from volcanic eruptions cover most of the land area of Yellowstone. The park is the centerpiece of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, the largest remaining nearly-intact ecosystem in the Earth's northern temperate zone.
Hundreds of species of mammals, birds, fish and reptiles have been documented, including several that are either endangered or threatened. The vast forests and grasslands also include unique species of plants. Yellowstone Park is the largest and most famous megafauna location in the Continental United States. Grizzly bears, wolves, and free-ranging herds of bison and elk live in the park. The Yellowstone Park bison herd is the oldest and largest public bison herd in the United States. Forest fires occur in the park each year; in the large forest fires of 1988, nearly one third of the park was burnt. Yellowstone has numerous recreational opportunities, including hiking, camping, boating, fishing and sightseeing. Paved roads provide close access to the major geothermal areas as well as some of the lakes and waterfalls. During the winter, visitors often access the park by way of guided tours that use either snow coaches or snowmobiles. Approximately 96 percent of the land area of Yellowstone National Park is located within the state of Wyoming. Another three percent is within Montana, with the remaining one percent in Idaho. The park is 63 miles (101 km) north to south, and 54 miles (87 km) west to east by air. Yellowstone is 2,219,789 acres (898,317 ha; 3,468.420 sq mi) in area, larger than the states of Rhode Island or Delaware. Rivers and lakes cover five percent of the land area, with the largest water body being Yellowstone Lake at 87,040 acres (35,220 ha; 136.00 sq mi). Yellowstone Lake is up to 400 feet (120 m) deep and has 110 miles (180 km) of shoreline. At an elevation of 7,733 feet (2,357 m) above sea level, Yellowstone Lake is the largest high altitude lake in North America. Forests comprise 80 percent of the land area of the park; most of the rest is grassland. The Continental Divide of North America runs diagonally through the southwestern part of the park. The divide is a topographic feature that separates Pacific Ocean and Atlantic Ocean water drainages. About one third of the park lies on the west side of the divide. The origins of the Yellowstone and Snake Rivers are near each other but on opposite sides of the divide.

Lower Falls, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA
Yellowstone Falls consist of two major waterfalls on the Yellowstone River, within Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, United States. As the Yellowstone river flows north from Yellowstone Lake, it leaves the Hayden Valley and plunges first over Upper Yellowstone Falls and then a quarter mile (400 m) downstream over Lower Yellowstone Falls, at which point it then enters the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, which is up to 1,000 feet (304 m) deep.The lower falls are 308 feet (94 m) high, or almost twice as high as Niagara.
Mud Geyser, Hayden Valley, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, United States, North America
Hayden Valley is a large, sub-alpine valley in Yellowstone National Park straddling the Yellowstone River between Yellowstone Falls and Yellowstone Lake. The valley floor along the river is an ancient lake bed from a time when Yellowstone Lake was much larger. The valley is well known as one of the best locations to view wildlife in Yellowstone. The valley was the natural route to Yellowstone Lake as trappers, explorers and natives made their way up the Yellowstone River. On August 29, 1870 when Henry D. Washburn and Gustavus Cheyney Doane ascended Mount Washburn during the Washburn-Langford-Doane Expedition, they saw the great expanse of the Hayden Valley between Yellowstone Falls and the lake. In Doane's journal he described the valley as seen from Mount Washburn thus: a grassy valley, branching between low ridges, running from the river toward the center of the basin. A small stream rose in this valley, breaking through the ridges to the west in a deep cañon, and falling into the channel of the Yellowstone, which here bears in a northeast course, flowing in view as far as the confluence of the small stream, thence plunged into the Grand Cañon, and hidden from sight. No falls can be seen, but their location is readily detected by the sudden disappearance of the river; beyond this open valley the basin appears to be filled with a succession of low, converging ridges, heavily timbered, and all of about an equal altitude. To the south appears a broad sheet of water the Yellowstone Lake. Although its clear that the valley is named in honor of Ferdinand Vandeveer Hayden and his geological surveys of the Yellowstone region (his 1871 survey led to the creation of the park), there is little definitive evidence as to who actually named the valley. Some credit the Earl of Dunraven, during his visit in 1872, but the name first appeared on maps in 1880 in an annual report from superintendent Philetus Norris. The Hayden valley is approximately 7 miles (11 km) long north to south and 7 miles (11 km) wide east to west and occupies about 50 square miles (130 km2) of the park. It lies mostly the west of the Yellowstone River between Canyon and Yellowstone Lake. The Canyon to Lake section of the Grand Loop Road follows the eastern side of the valley near the river. The geothermal features that are scattered around the valley are not as impressive as those of the large geyser basins, but in many case they were the first to be discovered and described by the early explorers. They include Mud Volcano, Mud Geyser, Sulphur Caldron, and Black Dragon Caldron at the southern end of the valley and Sulphur Spring in the Crater Hills group further north and west of the river. The Hayden Valley is outstanding wildlife habitat and is frequented by buffalo, elk, grizzly bears, coyote and a host of smaller mammals and birds. To protect this habitat and prevent disturbing wildlife, the valley is closed to off-trail foot travel. Two trails make the valley accessible for hikers the Hayden Valley trail and the Mary Mountain trail. The valley trail parallels the river on the eastern side of the valley from Lake to Canyon, while the Mary Mountain trail skirts the northern edge of the valley along Alum Creek on its way to the Canyon-Lake road. All the rivers, creeks and ponds in the valley are closed to fishing.

Half Dome
Noted for its distinct shape, this granite dome-shaped structure is located in the eastern part of Yosemite Valley in the Yosemite National Park. Three sides of the face are smooth and rounded, while one side appears sheared off … giving it the appearance of a dome that was sliced in half. More than 4,700 feet high, the summit was first conquered in 1875. Today, adventurers can endure a grueling hike to the summit, or take one of several rock climbing routes. Have you ever been?
Charyn Canyon
It would be really easy to mistake this location for the Grand Canyon in the US. While Charyn Canyon is grand, it’s actually located some 7,000 miles east of Arizona’s natural wonder. It’s found in the Charyn (chair-un) National Park of Kazakhstan, and has earned the nickname of the Grand Canyon’s little brother. While its fiery red sandstone formations and raging river stretch for some 56 miles, that still comes up short against the elder Canyon, which stretches for some 277 miles. Another difference is that unlike the Grand Canyon, it little brother is not heavily commercialized … meaning visitors often have to bring their own food and water.
Crater Lake
The national park in Oregon is named after this amazing lake. At a depth of more than 1,900 feet, the lake nearly fills the caldera that dates back some 7700 years ago, after the volcano Mount Mazama collapsed. It’s the deepest lake in the US, and the second deepest in North America. In addition to offering a spectacular landscape, the lake is noted for its water clarity and for its deep blue color.
Torres del Paine National Park
You’ll find a vast array of spectacular sights including glaciers, lakes, mountains and rivers at this large park in Chilean Patagonia. The park contains the Cordillera Paine, a small group of mountains. Three distinctive granite peaks that have been measured to rise nearly 3,000 meters (9,843 ft) serve as the park’s iconic centerpiece. It’s one of Chile’s most popular parks, attracting more than a quarter-million visitors each year.
Kruger National Park
Located in South Africa and covers nearly 5 million acres … and contains the more species of large mammals than any other game reserve found in Africa. The Big Five game animals all reside here -- Elephants, rhinos, buffalo, leopards, and lions call the park home … Along with hippos, giraffes, Nile crocodiles and more than 500 species of birds. That provides visitors the chance to get about as close to the epic wildlife as possible.
Grand Prismatic Spring
This looks like the work of an artist who created a psychedelic image. But it’s a work that exists in real life and was created by Nature. The Grand Prismatic Spring is located in Yellowstone National Park. Did you know it’s one of many hydrothermal features created by a dormant supervolcano that exists underneath the area? Measuring some 370 feet in diameter and going around 160 feet deep, it’s the largest hot spring found in the US … and ranks as the third largest hot spring worldwide. Temperatures can reach about 160 degrees fahrenheit. The vivid blue coloration in the center is the result of blue light being scattered by particles suspended within the water.
Grand Canyon
Measuring some 277 miles long, 18 miles wide in some places, and about a mile deep, the famous national park in Arizona more than lives up to its name. The South Rim tends to attract the most visitors, and includes features like the Bright Angel Trail, and the Desert Watchtower. The North Rim is more secluded and attracts hardcore hikers and backpackers. All areas of the park offer so much spectacular scenery,that it would be difficult to take a bad picture there!
The Great Wildebeest Migration
One of the most amazing sights on Earth, happens every year at the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. It plays host to more than a million wildebeest charging across its 5,700 square miles in search of better grazing lands. And those animals are accompanied by hundreds of thousands of zebras and gazelles. Some people have called this the greatest show on earth. Big cats, bush elephants and buffalo are also some of the larger critters found in the park.
Hiking Yellowstone National Park
We hit the highlights of Yellowstone National Park, including the Grand Prismatic Spring, Yellowstone Lodge, and Yellowstone Falls on the Uncle Tom's Trail.
