Yea, to get the whole river in at Horseshoe Bend you need to have the field-of-view of a lens in the 11mm to 12mm range on a crop body. Nice is at sunset and using a variable ND filter, but I usually like the color of the rocks when the sun is hitting them and that would be in the morning.
What I often do with static subjects like this when I need to cover a wider area than what my lens will do is to take multiple shots and stitch them together. To not make it too complicated I often just do one row of shots in portrait orientation. If you do three shots with some overlap you can end up with a final image that retains the normal 35mm aspect ratio. For convenience I think you will like to have the ultra wide angle.
The Tokina 11-20mm, or if you want Nikon then their 10-24mm.
There is also the option to rent, last time I was in Yellowstone I ran into someone that had rented the Nikon 14-24mm for that trip.
