THE BEAUTY OF CRATER LAKE

We took an impromptu trip to go see this beautiful lake. So close to home but we had never spent any time there. It was a three day trip that we enjoyed so much it seemed like a longer vacation. 

The bones of trees stand as a testament to the drastic conditions.


In spite of the harsh weather, trees can live a very long life.



Just before leaving the park we drove in to see these fumaroles left behind when the soft earth eroded away. A wind picked up the dust which made for an irreal scene.
