We are headed to Crater Lake. First another grocery stop and a fuel stop. We had forgotten about the Oregon law of no self serve at gas stations. We find it frustrating, as some places do not have enough attendants and the waits are excruciating and painful. We had a Taco Bell while we waited for fuel. The Taco Bell was fast as much as the fuel is slow.
Around Salem it looks painfully dry.
Look at this cool bridge - - cannot research it right now - - it has to be a good story - - note there is a dam in the background (right).
And, a tunnel -
We approach Crater by using 58. We eventually climb about 5000 feet. Pretty rivers, lakes and lots of tall pine trees of undefined species.
This is Diamond Point - - in silhouette.
Pretty - -
We are only a few miles from the north park entrance and pretty much got one of the last campsites again. It’s not level, I hope I don’t roll off on to the floor while asleep!
We drove about 200 miles today. It was about 84 degrees when we arrived.
