Deepest lake in the US

[3legged_lab]

We were bored today so we took the kids for a ride, went to Crater Lake. Forgot just how busy that place can be in the summer, I saw license plates from New Jersey, Maine and everywhere in between.

The pinnacles, formed by steam plumes rising through ash and pumice, heating and hardening, then the softer ash/pumice being eroded away by Annie creek.

Sweet man. I've never been. Ive only flew over it a couple of time on the way to Seattle. Place is awesome looking.

Also stopped and let the kids feed the fish at the Klamath fish hatchery on the way to the lake

Sweet trip tripod, crater lake is beautiful. I've only been there once.

The sign said something like 1932', or somewhere in that ballpark.

Thank you. My OCD was getting me rather irritated scrolling through waiting to find the answer. I almost had to leave and go Google.

You got lines long enough for that Dan?

[assateague]

He's big ballin'. They're probably copper all the way down. That's how he rolls.

There are non-native rainbow and kokanee in there, no license, no limit - catch all you can pack up the 1+ mile trail to the road. People who have done it say "its 1 mile down and 3 miles back up".

I just wasn't sure if it showed up very well. I always wanted to hike down there and go for a ride, but now I'm too lazy.

Its a sight in winter, annual snowfall is ridiculous. I've been up there when there was 12 foot on the ground. They put these big half culverts up to the building doorways so the snow doesnt block it.

In MI you can just by 1 pass to all the parks in the state. You can even make it part of your license renewal.

But I wish I was able to pick up and go like that. Maybe someday.

Crater Lake is a national park so its the feds stickin it to you.

Great pictures man. I've been meaning to take the family there since we moved up here. And no good excuse why we haven't yet

Your duck stamp is good for admission to fed parks, FYI.

Shit! I forgot about that. How confused would the kid at the gate have had I whipped out the duck stamp then helicoptered up the hill?
