While visiting Yellowstone National Park last September, we stopped at Gibbon Falls to listen to the rush of the water. Being late summer, the river was kinda low, but there was still plenty of power as the water flowed down the mountain adjacent to the main highway. I look forward to going in the late spring when the snow melt really feels up the banks. Check out the original post from our “Living in the Moment” here.
I posted a different view of this area for April squares here.

wow if that is kinda low, what is it like when it is kinda high?!
I don’t know but I was told by the locals that is was really low. That’s why I want to go there in late spring after all the snow melt and see it for myself. The sounds have to be just spectacular. The rapids are real rapids! I have been in Colorado in early summer after the snow melt and there was a lot of raging water and the sound was loud! I was 15 at the time so I need a refresher! LOL! 🙂
I had the same thought; if this is low, I really want to see and hear when the water is high!
Yeah me too! Heard it once when I was 15 in Colorado at the beginning of July. It roared down all the rivers we were around at that time, so I can still only imagine what it’s like after the snow melt.
when mother nature goes wild… 🙂
Pretty much! 🙂 I’m drawn to it!
I’m not surprised!
hehehe! 🙂
don’t fall in when you do go!!
Nope! It’s pretty darn cold. I’m a really good swimmer, but even that might take me down without a vest. We paddled the Yellowstone River but had our vests on the whole time. Where there are rapids like this, I don’t get near the water. 🙂
Phew, that’s okay then xx
Still a pretty sight 🙂 🙂
Oh, it was beautiful! The whole 12 days were spent with my mouth open in awe! Can’t believe it was just a year ago and our last big trip. 🙂
😕💕💕
Exactly! 🙂
Lovely!
