Day 83: Crater Lake
We slept in an hour or so as our plan was to take our time in the morning recharging devices and finalizing our supplies for the next section.Chris, who had kindly let us pitch our tents in the campsite he had booked for him and his kids, cooked us breakfast!
Unfortunately the campground wifi wasn’t up to uploading photos so the last few day’s blog posts will have to wait.After midday we left Mazama Village and hiked up to Rim Village on the edge of Crater Lake where we had a late lunch.
I had been looking forward to seeing Crater Lake for ages, and it did not disappoint. It was perfect weather and the deep lake in the crater is an amazing blue.
We walked for a few miles around part of the Rim taking lots of photos, then walked down a side trail to a very nice campsite next to a spring.
*carrying, you’ve got to love autocorrect!
Best not let Mollie see the photo of the dog trekking otherwise she’ll have her bags packed and want to join you. I can just see her walking along caring her little stuffed toys.
Wow, what a spectacular lake. Glad it was such a beautiful day for you to enjoy the views.
Yay … crater lake. Pretty speccy hey!
Crater Lake is stunning. And what a good dog – perhaps you need one to carry mosquito repellant! How awful, all this mozzies even in snow. Amazing.
