Crater Lake TR

Looks like an awesome trip!

A great link to the TR.  It's intersting to see the lake side of The Watchman and Hillman Peak. Having skied the opposite side and looking down to the lake.  ;)

Awsome sunrise.

<< The route follows Rim Drive, the road around the lake, making the circumnavigation 31 miles long. Most people take 3 days to do the trip. Cross-country ski racers complete the route in under 8 hours.>>

A few yrs ago, I was all set to take two days, but as I stopped to get my permit, annother party mentioned skiing it in one go - by the light of the full moon.  Brilliant!
I dumped lots of gear and then chased after them.  I did bring a stove for hot drinks and meals.  One of the more memorable skiis of my life!
