Big Pines RV Park - Crescent, OR

Delayed post…

Correction from yesterday’s post - high in Shady Cove was actually 109!! Yikes!

So, we moved on and headed towards Crater Lake National Park. On our way, we stopped at the Rogue River Gorge - it is just amazing to watch the awesome power of water! When we were almost to the Crater Lake booth to enter the Park, we were amazed to see a line of cars to enter. It took us nearly an hour to get to the booth - how crazy is that? I guess it is good that people are visiting our National Parks, but really now. It turned out that there was just one person at the booth and she liked to talk. Also, there was quite a bit of smoke in the Park from fires (still in Canada?) so they had to explain about the limited visibility. We enjoyed the Park even much more than we anticipated. It is a beautiful setting and an impressive concept to think that the islands in the crater are really the result of volcanoes within a volcano…
