Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Mt. Mazama, a towering, glacier-clad volcano not unlike present-day Mt. Hood, erupted roughly 6,900 years ago, leaving behind the deep hole that is now Crater Lake. Famous for the lake's deep, crystal-clear waters and rugged surrounding terrain, Crater Lake National Park is a bounty of unique geology in a spectacular setting. This guide to the area provides plenty of useful trail info for hikers, skiers, and anglers--as well as lessons in local botany, geology, and wildlife. Also included is a detailed driving route around the rim of Crater Lake with 48 narrated stops and accompanying topographic maps.
