Trip of the Week Las Vegas Review Journal

Crater Lake features pristine water and cool temperatures.

A sapphire gem among the scenic jewels of the National Parks System, Crater Lake remains a remarkable experience for all who find their way to its location high in the Cascade Range in Southwestern Oregon. Because of the park's heavy snows, the season of full visitation spans brief weeks between mid-June and late September. Some years, major viewpoints, high trails and a major campground reopen in July or even in August. Expect to pay a $10 entrance fee or use one of the park passes available to U.S. citizens.
