 A GLIMPSE THROUGH TREES: CRATER TAKE NATIONAL PARK, OREGON 



Lying crystal-cold in a basin formed by a partly destroyed volcano. Crater Lake, 6,200 

 feet above the sea, completely surrounded by a varying line of cliffs between 500 and 2,000 

 feet in height, is a chief gem in the crown of the Cascade Mountains. The lake is about 

 20 miles in circumference, and the wild freshness of its nature makes it a peer of those 

 Alpine lakes whose names and fame have traveled so widely through the world — better 

 advertised, but not more fascinating.
