Road Trip 2011: Crater Lake

Crater Lake - 6.11.2011

I left Eugene, OR around noon today and headed out towards Crater Lake. Crater Lake is a lake at the top of this mountain. It was formed millions of years ago after this volcano erupted. The lake is only filled by rain and snowmelt. It's super blue, super clear and super deep. Pretty incredible. Anyway, the drive up to it was beautiful. Mountains and forests and rivers all over the place. Sadly, once I got up to the top on one side, I found out the side I went up is closed due to snow. So, I got to take another scenic drive to the other side. Fine by me, as it was more awesome sites. Finally, I made it up to the top and the site was, to put it mildly, was breathtaking. I took a number of photos and I'll get those up later after I sift through em all.

For tonight I'm just hanging out in Medford, OR. Lookin to make the 8hour drive to San Francisco tomorrow. It'll be a long drive but it'll be awesome I'm sure.
