WATERFALLS BY WHEELS: January 2016

Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

Lewis Falls is one of hundreds of waterfalls in Yellowstone National Park, yellowstone.net. 700,000 visitors enter the south entrance gate of Yellowstone. Yellowstone National Park is the oldest USA national park covering 3,472 square miles. We camped at Lewis Lake campground.

ACCESSIBILITY-Sidewalks lead from roadside parking lots on each side of the Lewis River bridge.

TYPE-Cascade: Water descends a series of rock steps. The falls height is approximately 30 feet.
