Yellowstone National Park (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Yellowstone National Park
A stairway allows the visitor to de scend to the very brink of Great Falls, and from here the view will hold him entranced. The water leaps into the abyss with a roar of anger and in one huge flood of brilliant, dazzling foam. The lower part of the falls is concealed by great clouds of mist.
Gazing down the canyon from the bank of the falls, the visitor may see Point Lookout rearing its head a half mile below. Almost directly opposite, to the right, is Artists' Point, the spot selected by Thomas Moran, the Ameri can landscape artist, to paint his famous picture that now hangs in the capitol at Washington. This is only one of the many pictures in which this great painter has tried to catch the color of the crown ing marvel of Yellowstone Park,-the Grand Canyon.
