Rustic Falls in Yellowstone National Park, with heavy white water pouring over a broad rock ledge into a rocky gorge, framed by evergreen trees and patches of lingering snow above the falls.

Spring runoff surges over Rustic Falls, cascading through a rocky gorge surrounded by dense evergreen forest. This lesser-known Yellowstone waterfall shows off the raw power of the season.

Fast-moving whitewater flowing through the Merced River in Yosemite Valley, crashing around large granite boulders with pine trees and forested cliffs surrounding the river.

Spring runoff turns the Merced River into a rush of whitewater, weaving through granite boulders beneath towering pines in Yosemite Valley. Loud, cold, and impossible to ignore.
