Water in Yellowstone

Lake Yellowstone is the largest lake in the park. Lewis Lake looks small on the map but huge when you're looking at it, plus there are a number of other smaller lakes and ponds. There are also rivers - Yellowstone River, Firehole River, Snake River, and Gibbon River to name a few. And almost all of them have a waterfall or two on them.

If you go to the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, you'll see the falls on the Yellowstone River. Again, I know we just scratched the surface of what is there. We had our hiking boots but given the altitude, we were reluctant to hike much of anywhere. What we saw are the things that are easy to get to. I can only imagine that there is so much more.
