North Rim of the Yellowstone Grand Canyon & Junior Scientist

Today we returned to Artists Point at the Yellowstone Grand Canyon to catch it in the morning light and then to  the north rim of the canyon which we had not yet visited.

On the way we ran into yet another buffalo-jam.  This time this bull challenged a car then he swerved into our lane and we followed him at his pace until he changed lanes again.

The lower falls are 300' high.  This shot is of the Upper Falls which are 100' high and is taken from an over-look named "Brink of the Falls".  The falls literally thunder and you can feel the rumble under your feet.

Here a shot of Greg & Ann at the Canyon Education Center.  Yellowstone has various programs that youngsters can join.  One is the Junior Scientist Program.  Greg had to complete a workbook that contains all kinds of questions about the science of the Park that need to be answered by visiting and observing various Park sites.  Greg successfully completed his and here he is being awarded a pin by a park ranger.  A very proud moment.
