The Grand Canyon is aptly named - Grand. Spectular views that change with the day light, great hiking, photo ops galore, and some challenging climbs. Don't miss Artist's Point and definitely do Uncle Tom's Trail. It's hard coming up but there are frequent resting points. Just Do IT. more

We went on our trip to Yellowstone National Park in December, cold winter. Most vistors to Yellowstone say you should see it in the summer or spring first. Only because if you see it in winter you seen it at it's best. Our trip was amazing! We saw so many animals inthe lemar valley and the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone... more

In my life I have never seen anything as amazing as the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. In June of 2007 I was with my friend and her 10 yr. old nephew on a tour of Yellowston, Grand Tetons, etc. While at Yellowstone we were at the entrance of the Grand Canyon walkway. They had gone ahead of me while... more

Yellowstone National Park is not only the first park to be established as a National Park, but it may very well be the most beautiful as well! The landscape is beautiful, the view of the lake is gorgeous, the geyers are impressive (who'd have thought I'd have the patience to sit in the wild for 90 minutes, waiting for the... more

We were on a quick timetable and had a small child and grandparent with injured knee, so hiking was not our priority. However, we did begin the junior ranger program and the visitor center in canyon was really nice. We stayed in the western cabin which ran around 150$ plus for a night, but was really nice in comparison to... more

There are a lot of view points and you should check them all out. The colors in the canyon are vibrant and the waterfalls are powerful. There are even small geysers on the canyon walls which add to the unusual atmosphere at Yellowstone. The Grand Canyon of Yellowstone has a lot to offer all ages. Very unique and if you... more

This is without of doubt our favorite part of yellowstone. Be sure to have your camera with you!! Avery short distance from this area my husband and myself pulled off the road where we saw several people watching something. It was awsome. I t was a moose standing in shallow water, using his antler to scoop water up and toss... more

The drive along the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone is breathtaking. Wildlife abounds. The sky is a thing of beauty. Yet you are not prepared for your first glimpse of the canyon. And it just keeps getting better. I would recommend pulling over often and availing oneself of the many vistas which are afforded. Walk down and look at the... more

Just like the name says it is a smaller version of the Grad Canyon. You may see the canyon and it's two waterfalls either from above or below. The view from above is like I said "breath taking". If you are up to it and not too out of shape, you may hike down to the bottom of the canyon.... more

The whole Yellowstone park is a place that must be visited. There is no other place like it in the world. Most of the park is inside an old volcano crater and is the thinest earths crust in the world, I guess that accounts for all the hot springs and geyser. A must visit, before or after the summer crush... more
