Today I did a really nice hike with my friend Jamie up to the glacial lake in the crater of Broken top in the Cascade range just out of Bend. Two summers ago I hiked to the summit of Broken top and always wanted to hike to the crater. The trip is about 7-8 miles round trip with approx 1600 ft of vertical. Was originally going to bring the older boys but they are still recovering from Camp this week :)
