The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone
This morning we were up and out of our campground to see the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, waterfalls and, of course, more animals with our traveling partners, Emily and Andy. We still need to see a Moose!
We entered at the West Entrance on the picture above and traveled on a 30 mile route to take us to the canyon. Our first stop was to see another hot springs in the Monument Geyser Basin.
It’s a little hard to tell in the left picture above but the water was super clear and right below the main bubbling water the color was a beautiful aqua-marine color.
We were on our “Moose Watch” and came across a Grizzly Bear in the distance and were happy he was at a distance.
Next stop was at Gibbon Falls.
Last stop for the day was the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone.
The canyon had a magnificent waterfall in it where the water dropped more than 380 feet, a much larger drop than Niagara Falls!
We saw some more buffalo on our way back to the campsite but NO MOOSE!!
