Winter comes to Crater Lake N.P.

I was camping near Crater Lake N.P. on Diamond Lake. (Crater Lake campground was closed for the year). I had arrived on Wednesday to beat the rush for the Solar Eclipse campsites. The Eclipse went from Oregon to Texas on Saturday 14. Unfortunately, it was cloudy on the 14th. But, it was absolutely beautiful on Thursday so I went up to Crater Lake. Over night there had been about 6 inches of snow , rain and plenty of wind. The rain and snow had frozen horizontally on everything. Even when I was shooting these photos. The wind was blowing 20-30 mph. Enjoy..

Wow. Looks way different than when I saw it in late July years ago.

Beautiful photos! Beautiful place!
I overheard a lady at the gift shop one year, asking another visitor if they had came earlier in the year "when the snow on the parking lot was 42 FEET deep"!

It does get that deep. Crater Lake never fails to impress.
