I finished up my trip to Norris Geyser Basin around 9:00 A.M. so had plenty of time to see another part of Yellowstone. I chose to take the road to Tower Falls, since I had not been there in the past. This is the most beautiful part of Yellowstone, landscape-wise. I enjoyed the big views of mountains and hills and the short views of wildflowers. Hopefully, I'll get to spend more time in this area and Lamar Valley. I have two more friends coming to visit Yellowstone with me but I'll be deferring to their wishes as to where we'll be going.

Fields of wildflowers and conifers |
I think this is a penstemon - loved by bees |
A long view from a pull-out |
So many colors - the fields are changing into fall colors |
The entrance to Tower Falls |

View from Tower Falls Trail |
The stream Tower Falls is on |
