7/15/08 - Union Creek Campground, Rogue National Forest - Oregon




We drove to Crater Lake National Park and drove the rim drive around the lake. This area is supposed to have some of the clearest skies in North America, you should be able to see 100 miles. However, it was very smoky due to the California wildfires. You couldn't see the other side of the lake. We took pictures anyway. The range said the previous day was crystal clear, of course. We went on a few short hikes on the rim road including one to an area they call the Pinnacles. These are pointy volcanic chimneys. We went back to camp and stopped by Becky's and got pie again. Jim got peach and I got coconut. We went for a little hike on the trail in our campground down Union Creek where it merges with the Rogue River.
