Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone - Upper Falls Brink to Uncle Tom's Trail

Sunday evening we stopped by the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone to see it around sunset. Joy loved the falls and the canyon.



View of the upper falls. We hiked down to the brink of the upper falls. It is very powerful to see, hear, and feel the water plunging over the edge. Hard to capture on film, though.
Joy near the top of Uncle Tom's Trail. Joy found the inner reserves to make it down and back up all of the 328 steps.
Stairs and more stairs. They actually could make it longer, since it doesn't extend all the way to the bottom of the falls.
The lower falls from near the bottom of the trail.
The next two photos are views down the canyon from near the top of the stairs.
