Yellowstone National Park is a treasure, and Wyomingites are lucky to live so close. However, nobody really likes fighting crowds to see the typical sights, so plan a trip where you avoid Old Faithful, Grand Prismatic, and Mammoth, and instead find Undine Falls – a stunning hidden triple cascade in northwestern Wyoming.

The stunning triple cascade of Undine Falls is most frequently accessed from Grand Loop Road, where you can see the falls after a quick walk away from the turnout.

However, if you want to avoid the crowds, take the more lightly trafficked Lava Creek Canyon Trail.
