Lewis Falls is a 30-foot (9.1 meter) tall waterfall about 11 miles north of Yellowstone National Park's South Entrance--September 3, 2009
Woke up this morning feeling oddly refreshed. Must be that 2nd vaccine shot we got on Saturday. Anyway, it put me in a wild and wooly mood, so I drug out this image of Lewis Falls in southern Yellowstone. It doesn't get much wilder and woolier than this me thinks--unless you're talking about the way my hair looked this morning.

Lewis Falls located in Yellowstone National Park is a short drive from Grant Village. It's in between Grant Village in Yellowstone National Park and Colter Bay Village in Grand Teton National Park. One advantage to staying in Grant Village is it's location. It's close enough to Old Faithful, Yellowstone Falls, Lewis Falls and Grand Teton National Park. Lewis Falls is next to the road. On one side is the falls on the other side is the river valley which is equally as spectacular. #NPS #LewisFalls #YellowstoneNationalPark #SouthernLoop #LewisRiver #Wyoming
The Lewis River by the Lewis Falls in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. This photo has been in my photostream for some time. I just didn't post it to any groups until now. #NPS #YellowstoneNationalPark. #LewisRiver
Lewis River Valley in Yellowstone National Park is on the opposite side of the road from the waterfalls. It's a short drive from Grant Village in Yellowstone NP. It's next to the road with limited parking. It's worth the stop.

Yess, finally we are in it and near the Lewis River with its waterfall that descends from Lewis Lake and flows into the Snake River.
Lewis Falls is an 81 foot drop along the Hawksbill Creek in Shenandoah National Park. We were RV camping at the nearby Big Meadows Campground, so this was just a couple mile hike along the Appalachian Trail. The hike was easy to moderate to see a relatively high waterfall among the autumn colors of the forest. All said, I actually preferred the scenery up the mountain before the creek goes over the falls, as seen here www.flickr.com/photos/aparlette/52429516553/

Yellowstone Park is a place that fills one with wonder. Where would we humans be without wildlands in which to seek refuge from the daily grind of work and obligations.

The morning sunshine illuminates the slowly lifting fog near Lewis Falls at Yellowstone National Park--September 3, 2009
I shot this last week with Rich Bitonti in Lower Lewis Falls in Washington State. I didn't bring any waders so he lent me a pair of his. But I had to wear my hiking boots which have very little traction on slippery rocks let me tell you. I slowly made it out to this spot without falling down which was good. There was a foam trail moving toward this rock so I thought I'd use it as a foreground. Anyway, this was one of the nicest waterfalls I've ever shot and I'm glad to bring home some decent shots from here.

The falls on the Lewis River were named after Meriwether Lewis from the famous Lewis and Clark expedition in 1803-1807.

I shot this image of Lewis Falls on my first visit to Oregon/Washington in 2012 but I never processed it. It's actually three separate exposures hand-blended in PS. Kind of a weird comp but there weren't a lot of choices from this position.

Lewis Falls, taken at Yellowstone National Park. A great little waterfall right off of one of the main roads. Thanks for looking!
Lewis Falls, of the Lewis River (Scenic Segment), that pours out of Lewis Lake, is named for Meriwether Lewis, of Lewis & Clark Fame. Very recentlly the Park Service wisely invested in major improvements to the viewing areas and added a short, safe trail to overlooks such as this one. As a result my estimation of this small beauty spot has also improved. Lovely fall colors certainly add to the appeal as well. As always, I recommend viewing full screen if you can.
The Lewis Falls are located on the Lewis River in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, United States. The falls drop approximately 30 feet (9.1 m) and are easily seen from the road, halfway between the south entrance to the park and Grant Village. The falls are on the Lewis River, just south of Lewis Lake. [source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Falls]
Yellowstone National Park is a national park located in the U.S. states of Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho. It was established by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant on March 1, 1872. Yellowstone was the first National Park in the U.S. and is also widely held to be the first national park in the world. The park is known for its wildlife and its many geothermal features, especially Old Faithful Geyser, one of its most popular features. It has many types of ecosystems, but the subalpine forest is the most abundant. It is part of the South Central Rockies forests ecoregion. Native Americans have lived in the Yellowstone region for at least 11,000 years. Aside from visits by mountain men during the early-to-mid-19th century, organized exploration did not begin until the late 1860s. Management and control of the park originally fell under the jurisdiction of the Secretary of the Interior, the first being Columbus Delano. However, the U.S. Army was subsequently commissioned to oversee management of Yellowstone for a 30-year period between 1886 and 1916. In 1917, administration of the park was transferred to the National Park Service, which had been created the previous year. Hundreds of structures have been built and are protected for their architectural and historical significance, and researchers have examined more than 1,000 archaeological sites. Yellowstone National Park spans an area of 3,468.4 square miles (8,983 km2), comprising lakes, canyons, rivers and mountain ranges. Yellowstone Lake is one of the largest high-elevation lakes in North America and is centered over the Yellowstone Caldera, the largest supervolcano on the continent. The caldera is considered an active volcano. It has erupted with tremendous force several times in the last two million years. Half of the world's geothermal features are in Yellowstone, fueled by this ongoing volcanism. Lava flows and rocks from volcanic eruptions cover most of the land area of Yellowstone. The park is the centerpiece of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, the largest remaining nearly-intact ecosystem in the Earth's northern temperate zone.

An autumn morning at Lewis Falls in southern Yellowstone. Even though the fall is only thirty feet (9 meters) tall, it is probably one of the most photographed waterfalls in Yellowstone as it is located right off the Southern Entrance Road from the Lewis River Bridge.

Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. Lewis Falls drops about 30 feet (9.1m) and is located on the Lewis River in Yellowstone National Park just below Lewis Lake. Scanned from Kodachrome slide.
Some of Yellowstone's famous waters go up; some go down. This waterfall is visible from the South Entrance Road just south of Lewis Lake, but you need to stop and turn to get a good look at it. Height is 30 feet.
HDR of two exposures.
Middle Lewis River Falls is a 33 foot cataract and the widest of waterfalls along the Lewis River. The falls spread out over a broad bedrock sheet then crashs sideways into a trough, half of the falls plunging straight down in a horseshoe and half sliding down the bedrock. From one end to the other end of the falls is almost 300 feet wide.
Just as I was getting ready to head back south to the Tetons the sky started to clear, so I took some shots of the Lewis River downstream. When I got back to the falls, I was actually able to get some shots of the falls with blue sky.

The Lewis River is a tributary of the Columbia River, about 95 miles long, in southwestern Washington.
Lewis Falls on a wonderful autumn morning on the South Entrance Road, eleven miles from the entrance to Yellowstone southern's entrance and a mile south of Lewis Lake. Because of it roadside location, the 30 foot waterfall is one of the most photographed in the park.

One of the few photos I took on my ridiculously brief detour into Yellowstone. In retrospect, I think the limited time I had at my disposal would have been better served staying in the Tetons. It isn't because Yellowstone isn't worth a trip--it's one of the crown jewels of our national park system--it's that it's so huge with its scenic wonders spread over a wide area, while the Tetons are limited to much smaller confines. I had planned to spend more time with the Tetons the next day, but the weather turned bad, so I missed my chance to incorporate the lakes near the Tetons into my photographs.

This one's pretty minor for Yellowstone... according to the park map, only a 30' drop. Lewis Lake is about a mile above, and that's the Lewis River below the falls. All are named for Meriwether Lewis, commander of the famed Lewis & Clark Expedition in the early 1800s.
Lews Falls, iteself being an ancient lava flowage used to mark the upper extent of the Salmon Runs on the Lewis river. Unfortunately several damns built downstram now prevent the upstream run of hte salmon. However, visible in this shot is the deep pool that once marked the beginning of life for salmon and a few years later also marked the end of their lives when they spawned.
