Trip Report

A congenial group of 16 skiers and snowshoers took over the Union Creek lodge for a weekend of activity at Crater Lake. After what has been a disastrous snow season, we weren’t sure what we would find up at the lake and were happy to find plenty of snow to play on. Although we were somewhat disillusioned by the steady rain at the lodge, our minds were eased as we approached the lake and the rain turned into snow showers. Visibility was disappointing as the lake was obscured by clouds and fog, but everyone was able to ski or snowshoe. On Saturday evening everyone pitched in to help with a group dinner, which was enjoyed in front of a roaring log fire in the living area. On Sunday, some of the group went hiking along the Rogue River trail and others headed back to the lake. This time the weather cooperated and we were treated to a view of the whole lake.

Thanks to everyone who helped organize the dinner, drive carpools and organize the daily trips.
