to explore

Wyoming’s waterfalls are fed by high-elevation sources across the Teton, Wind River, Absaroka and Bighorn ranges and the Yellowstone plateau, where glacial cirques, steep escarpments and narrow river canyons produce cascades, plunges and tiered drops. Hikes are often moderate backcountry routes with long alpine approaches interspersed with a handful of easy roadside falls and occasional technical scrambles; strong seasonal snowmelt and remote, high-altitude terrain distinguish Wyoming’s waterfall hiking from lower-elevation states.
