Upper Falls, Yellowstone River, Y.N.P., No. 2107

With this view of the Yellowstone River's Upper Falls, Solomon D. Butcher turns his attention from the geyser basins to the park's grand canyon for the first time in his series. He includes the tourist viewing platform at the precipice, a subtle detail of human presence set against the massive white cascade. As with other cards from this sequence in the collection, this example survives in an uncirculated state, its Kruxo verso pristine.
