Crater Lake

17 Sep 2016 5 4 606
Well, yes. It's a different Crater Lake than the famous one in Oregon! This one is in California's Sierra Nevada west of Hope Valley. And it isn't a "crater" at all; it's a small cirque lake that's been enlarged with a low outlet dam for water storage. And it's accessed by a serious 4wd track. Still, it's a nice setting. The figure on the right is in fact a fisherman standing out on a bar. The butte framed in the outlet is Hawkins Peak. Looking pretty much east.
