Interesting fact. Since living in Oregon we have never been to Crater lake at least in the summer time. Hunter and I winter camped there a few years back in 2022, but its just been one of those things where its been a bit of a drive for a day. Anyhow with Addie - Hunters girlfriend here we decided to make a day trip and it was great to see it.
Great weather and great views of the Lake!
We also parked (along with the masses) and hiked down to Cleetwood cove - the steep (and only) trail that takes you down to the waters edge and took a swim in the frigid waters. Helped that the weather was hot. To be honest, it was cold but not the coldest water i have felt before - it felt good given the temps.
