Hayden Valley

Hayden Valley

Although Hayden Valley is well known in Yellowstone for wildlife viewing and photographing, with the right weather, it can provide stunning landscape images.   Hayden Valley is a large, sub-alpine valley in Yellowstone NP straddling the Yellowstone River between Yellowstone Falls and Yellowstone Lake. The valley floor along the river is an ancient lake bed from a time when Yellowstone Lake was much larger.
