Crater Lake National Park

We left Smith Rock State Park and drove to Collier Memorial State Park.  Collier has done an excellent job with their lumber industry museum.  They have even restored a couple of steam tractors.  Here is an unusual picture of a Chipmunk and a Donkey.
We rode the motorcycles the 30 miles up to the National Park.

We didn't follow the advice of the National Park and rode counter clockwise around the lake.  The first glimpse of the lake was spectacular.
A couple of interesting things; This lake has no streams that feed it.  It is filled only with snow melt.  It is the deepest lake in the U.S.
Other than that it is very pretty.


We made a couple of stops along the way.

And even met a nice Marmot during one of our hikes.
