Crater Lake

While we were here in Oregon we thought we would go to Crater Lake.  We talked Cate, Luke and Caleb into going with us.  We had a really great time and here are some of the pictures to prove it.
 We entered the park through the North Gate and found the Lake about 8 miles down the road.
 
 

After we got our first look at the lake everyone was hungry so we stopped along the road to eat.  I was surprised that there were very few picnic areas so we found a flat rock (with a steep drop-off on the far side) and made sandwiches for lunch.  Patsy made sure everyone stayed away from the drop-off. 


The kids were surprised to see snow in August!  Fun!


The picture in the middle is a spire that has a fire watch tower at the top.  (See picture on the right.)  When we were at the top we took a picture of the parking lot where Patsy was waiting.  (Far Left)
In the center is a picture of the four of us at the top.  Best view in the park.
