As you can see from the map on Rick's IPad (yes, this is his navigation source, etc for flying), Crater Lake is a nice round body of water at 6178 feet. It is in the caldera basin formed when Mt Mazama erupted about 7000 years ago. It is 5 miles in diameter and 1,932 feet deep - the deepest lake in the United States - and way bigger than Barringer Crater we saw in Arizona.
I've ridden my Harley to Crater Lake. It's an impressive site, and an even more impressive ride up the mountain to get there.
