Crater Lake National Park

7700 years ago Mt. Mazama in the southwest region of Oregon erupted. When the mountain collapsed in on itself the eruption created a 31,680 ft. Wide and 1,943 ft. deep caldera. Rain and snow gradually filled the caldera, creating Crater Lake, the deepest lake in the United States and one of the few places on earth where you can find a volcano within a volcano with the cinder cone that is Wizard island on the western side of the lake. 🍂

Today Crater Lake is home to the Crater Lake Science and Learning Center for scientists, artists, students and teachers, miles of trails and cycling, cabins and cascade mountain geological wilderness 🍂

The Hoh Rainforest and the Olympic peninsula. Can’t you just hear the old dino’s that would’ve roamed these trails? 🌿🦕 These ancient old growth forests were the same ones that the dinosaurs called home over 250 million years ago. Walk silently and listen.
