It was fascinating to watch. I could do it all day long! We don't have waterfalls where I'm from so I guess that's why I was so amazed by it. It's not the largest waterfall inside of Yellowstone Park by any means. However, I was still amazed by it! The water looks crystal clear. Watching the waterfall is so peaceful and soothing. Tower Fall is located on Tower Creek in the northeastern part of Yellowstone National Park. The waterfall dumps out water from the Yellowstone River. The waterfall is 132 feet. It was named by Samuel Hauser, a member of the Washburn Party. (Tower Falls) circa 1870. The U.S. Geological Survey renamed it to Tower Fall in 1928. A painting by Thomas Moran persuaded Congress to designate Yellowstone National Park as the world's first national park in 1872. This is according to Wikipedia. Would I recommend this waterfall and national park? YES, without a doubt. I think everyone should visit Yellowstone National Park if they get the opportunity to do so. It's a beautiful experience you and your loved ones will cherish for many years to come.

I came here at around 6:30pm and there were a good amount of people but there were still a good amount of parking spots available.

There are walkways to different parts of the terrace and you'll be able to see some mountains in the backgrounds of some of these. There are amenities in the general area like lodging, gas if you need to fill up, restrooms, and even the Mammoth Post Office. Also, when you drive through Mammoth you might even see tons of wildlife just roaming around the streets!

Lookout Point is one of a few lookout spots you can stop at when you drive on North Rim Drive (a one-way drive). Just heads up, the parking lot isn't very large. If you continue on with your drive on North Rim Drive, you will eventually end up in Canyon Village. If you want to make an adventure of your stop here, I suggest hiking the North Rim Trail east to Inspiration Point and enjoy the beautiful views along the way. There is also a paved path and some wooden steps below that take you down to a viewing platform called Red Rock Point. This will give you a close full view of Lower Falls. Lookout Point was one of my favorite spots to stop at on the North Rim. I highly recommend checking it out.

You can go to the brink of the lower falls to see the top of the waterfall, but this lookout overlooks the entire thing which I think is better. Another underrated view is the red rocks view which is right next to this lookout point. Instead of going straight to the lookout you go down the stairs, walk a bit and then get to the red rocks view which is a bit closer to the waterfall and more eye-level. There are also fewer people here so you'll have more time to take nice pictures and videos without the crowds.
