Lower Yellowstone Falls is a spectacular waterfall that drops 308 feet. It is located along the Yellowstone River below canyon Lodge and is easily viewed from both sides of the canyon by road and by hiking all along Uncle Tom’s Trail.
I was in total awe when after trudging through a very slippery ice track I then came face to face with this amazing vista. It really blew me away. .

Good Job! Ive seen that waterfall in summer but never in winter. What month were you there?
We are planning to visit Yellowstone again this summer.
You should add more tags….waterfall, water, fall, yellowstone, canyon, etc
Barbara Burkhardt replied
Hi there Jim, we were there late April for this and thanks for the tag reminder, I do get ahead of myself and onto the next pic before finishing the last in full- bad habit.
