We crossed over the Firehole river a few more times, and once we came to a turnoff near the river that I decided to quickly explore. I think that Amy might have stayed in the car (she was cold, especially as the road rose in elevation), but it was worth the short quick walk, even if I did have to look out for ice on the path.
There was a short boardwalk/overhang on the side of the canyon.
Looking upstream the cascades were quite obvious, and majestic as well.
I also looked directly down into the canon off the far edge of the platform.
There were a good number of branches that yielded many interesting pictures. I especially enjoyed the pine cones.
The red pine cones were neat even if I couldn't get a completely clear picture.
And the dead needles also provided an interesting color contrast.
Then I'll leave you with a closeup of the rapids.
