Rustic Falls in Wyoming is a small roadside stop that many people pass by, but it's really worth a…read morequick stop. The waterfall is right next to the parking area, so you can see it instantly without any hiking. Because the parking is limited, it stays quiet and often feels like a hidden spot. While others rush to bigger attractions, this place gives you a calm, simple moment in nature. The waterfall itself isn't huge, but it's beautiful in its own way -- water rushing over the rocks, framed by trees and open sky. It feels natural, peaceful, and refreshing. If you're driving by, stop for a few minutes. It's simple, easy, and surprisingly memorable.

It's a short loop near Grand Prismatic Spring (only a couple minutes north) and you turn from Grand Loop Road into a narrow road. There are a good amount of geysers on this drive although I only went to a few of them before turning around to get out. I went to the firehole spring, the great fountain geyser, the surprise pool, and the white dome geyser. I wouldn't say that there was anything special about these set of geysers and springs that you wouldn't be able to see elsewhere in the park, but I went on an early Sunday morning so there was absolutely no one which was nice and peaceful.

This mile-long, one way road passes past several geysers and hot springs north of Old Faithful…read more Among the many attractions are Firehole Spring, Surprise Pool, the Great Fountain Geyser, White Dome Geyser, Pink Cone Geyser, Firehole and Hot lakes and Steady Geyser. Many of these sites can be viewed right from your car, although there are parking lots so you can get out, too. Great Fountain Geyser typically erupts within a four-hour window. Not very convenient, though, if you have to sit there that long. However, its eruption can last up to two hours and can send water from 75 feet to over 220 feet. The 12-foot-high cone of the White Cone Geyser is one of the largest within Yellowstone. It's eruptions can be very unpredictable. During my visit, White Cone wasn't showing any action and then a minute later, while driving away, I saw it start to erupt from my rearview mirror. I stopped and got out of my car to take photos from a short distance.

Bright and early, but worth it. We communicated with Audra way in advance and shared our desire to do a 1/2 day tour. We didn't have a long stay and wanted to maximize our visit to Yellowstone. She customized our trip exactly the way we wanted. Typically, the tours start very early (5-6a) but since we were coming from Big Sky, we could only meet our tour guide, Spencer, at 7a. It was the most amazing tour. Spencer took us to Slough Creek to see if we could spot wolves. We set up shop, had our binoculars and sure enough after 30 minutes, an entire den of wolves and their pups came out! We then moved over to another spot and witnessed coyotes defending their kill with a lone wolf. It was a sight. Then we saw a herd of bison, and a solo bison crossing the bridge. We saw red tail hawks, a red fox and white mountain. All slights were captured on video by our fabulous expert tour guide, Spencer. Suffice to say, our short visit to Yellowstone was incredible and more than we could ever imagine. Thanks to Spencer! https://lamarvalleytouring.com/
