Crater Lake National Park
We arrived at Crater Lake late in the day Tuesday and checked in to get a campsite within the park. The attendant told us we had no chance of getting a campsite with electricity because it was so late and campsites are 1st come 1st serve. We hit the F loop anyway! Low and behold a site with electric was open, we nestled ourselves back into the site and turned on the heat. Good thing as temps dropped into the 30's both nights we stayed in the park! We had one full day to explore the park and we did it all. We toured Rim Road and stopped at all the overlooks, went to a Ranger program to earn a badge, hiked to the bottom of the crater and swam in the lake, hiked back up the crater (the equivalent of 67 flights of stairs), came back to the crater at night to view the milky way (and possibly several other galaxy's, it was so incredible), and became Jr. Rangers. A full day indeed!
