Woke up at 4:00AM!?
Made the trek up out to Crater Lake for sunrise. Looking to get a shot of the sun rising over Wizard Island. Got to a lookout as color was popping in the sky. It was 19 degrees outside, so bundling up was a must. Tried setting up my camera with shaky hands and a frozen nose but was able to capture this:
After warming back up in the car, we drove to take in more waterfalls and hikes, this time along the Umpqua River. We drove out to Toketee Falls and did the short hike to the viewpoint of the cascading water. From here, we had back east along the Umpqua River back towards Bend, Oregon hitting up Watson Falls, Whitehorse Falls and Clearwater Falls.
While in Bend, we ate at Deschutes Brewery and relaxed a little before heading to Mt. Hood for the night.
