  1. Wizard Island. My Mom posed for a picture that was on a local travel brochure. She was sitting on a rock on the rim of the lake with the island in the background. The photo was taken just before the start of WWII when she was 20 years old. She looked very glamorous in the photo.

  3. Probably a resurgent dome in a water-filled caldera. The dome popped it's lid to create the smaller crater.

  4. Oh, is that Crater Lake. I lost my wallet there. I had to hike back several miles in snow to retrieve it.

  5. The clarity and depth of the water give it a blue on a clear day that must be seen to be believed.
