Clip of the Week

Artist Point Yellowstone National Park Part 2

A very different clip than last weeks close-up view of the Lower Falls from Artist Point.

This clip is a time-lapse of the entire canyon with the falls off in the distance.

Artist Point is one of the most spectacular scenic areas in the Canyon Area of the Park. The sheer walls drop 700 feet to the bottom of the canyon.

Upriver the powerful Lower Falls are still in view. Down river the canyon widens and deepens to maximum of 1540 feet.

The canyon walls are predominantly yellow, but colors of blue, red, orange, and brown are also present. The colors are ever changing and intensified especially when the sun shines after raining.
