AFTER its mad plunge
of 109 feet over the
Upper Falls, the turbu
lent Yellowstone River hastens
to its greater leap of 308 feet
into the great declivity of the
Lower Fall, i The grandeur
and sublimity of this creation
of nature have been both the
inspiration and despair of ar
tists and orators. Below the
Lower Falls is the grand can
yon of the Yellowstone, which,
while not so long, so deep or
so wide as some other canyons,
contains a more wonderful
combination of colors and a
more weird and interesting
variety of sculptural effects.
Both the falls and the canyon
are accessible from the roads
and paths of Yellowstone Na
tional Park and annually are
viewed by thousands of tourists.
