Re: Yellowstone/Mt. Rushmore Advice
Yeah the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone is amazing, with the yellow colored canyon walls, there are some fumorales where steam is still escaping from the canyon walls. It is a GREAT place to find ospery nests (there are usually 2-3 nesting pairs in the canyon. Last year there was one right near the edge on the North Rim (I cant remember which lookout sorry.)
Inspiration point is also a great overlook, it is way back (even further back) than artist point. Along the north rim they have kind of redone the road so you can drive along to each look out, hop out for a short walk and then go to the next one. There is also a nice trail along the north rim. The south rim travel is a little more jagged, but really on the south rim I would just do uncle Tom's and artist point. Those are the coolest parts of the south rim and the north rim is kind of set up better for viewing and traffic flow.
You can not see both falls at the same time.
