Crater Lake in the Snow



We are at Joseph Stewart State Park on the road to Crater Lake. The weather down here is beautiful, the grass is green and the wildflowers are out. A few thousand feet up, the weather is still warm, and the snow is higher than an elephant's eye. The lake is so different in the winter, and very beautiful. We are finally enjoying the camping life. Long evening fires, cooking with the Dutch oven and the fireplace. and hiking in shirtsleeves. We were going to just sit and relax up here, but we don't do that very well. We have hiked most of the trails that are free of snow, and done the bike rides that are fit for regular bikes. Must be time to head on. Weather's changing in a couple of days, too.
