This is the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. It's in Yellowstone National Park, and to me even though it's not as big or well known as the other one with that name, it's one of the most majestic sights I've seen.
I've been there twice, both times cold and windy, and both times magical. This view has inspired many artists over the years and it's easy to see why. The roaring river flowing through the many colored rock canyon walls isn't easy to portray with a camera or brush, but many have tried.
This one is on my list to try again. I won't get tired of this place.
By-the-way...This image was taken this last May, just after the roads were open to get to it, and just before the roads closed again for a late spring snow storm. We just caught the timing right.
