Tower Falls
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tower Fall is a waterfall in the northeastern region of Yellowstone National Park, in the U.S. state of Wyoming. The fall drops 132 feet (40 m) and the naming comes from the rock pinnacles at the top of the fall. A well known painting by Thomas Moran in 1871 helped persuade the U.S. Congress to set aside Yellowstone as the world's first national park in 1872.[1]
