Panorama - Crater Lake from Mount Scott
Crater Lake National Park, Oregon. Crater Lake lies in a caldera formed by the collapse of Mount Mazama about 7700 years ago. With a depth of 1,949 feet, Crater Lake is the deepest lake in the United States and, in the world, ranks tenth in (maximum) depth and third in (average) depth. The lake has no inlets or outlets, so the water, replenished by rain and snow, is very pure and clear which gives the lake its deep blue color. (Wikipedia) The trail to the top of Mount Scott is 5 miles round trip and ascends about 1500 feet. Mount Scott is the tenth highest peak in the Oregon Cascades. Scanned from two Kodachrome slides.
