Gibbon Falls, Waterfall in Yellowstone National Park, US
Gibbon Falls cascades 84 feet down a rock face within Yellowstone National Park, creating white water patterns visible from multiple observation points.
The waterfall flows over geological formations created during a massive volcanic eruption that formed the Yellowstone caldera 631,000 years ago.
Native American tribes of the region incorporated the sound and power of Gibbon Falls into their oral traditions about Yellowstone's natural features.
Visitors can access the falls through a 0.5-mile round trip trail from the parking area, with designated spots for viewing and photography.
The Arctic grayling fish population, once abundant in the waters below Gibbon Falls, maintains a small presence in the Gibbon River system.
