your heart beating on the brilliant whitewater of White River - South Fork; hiking is a popular thing to do around Crater Lake; Fayville Trail is a perfect local trail. Really brilliant skiing awaits you at Sunlight Mountain, and
why not camp at Supply Basin Campground while you're here at Crater Lake. Crater Lake is regularly a pretty dried out place; during October this area sees the most rain, and January meanwhile is the driest month. There are other
sites here than Crater Lake, for example Shadow Lake, and after a long day outdoors Quality Inn & Suites On The River is a brilliant place to spend a night or two.
