Day 16 - 2 - Crater Lake

The astonishing Crater Lake at Oregon. The only words you can think of is Big, Blue.

It was originally a mountain. It blew its top. After all the lava had gushed forth, a caldera or crater is formed. That crater fills up with ice and pure water - and voila! Crater Lake is formed.

Try and get your head around this fact - Crater Lake holds holds 5 trillion gallons of water! That's 700 gallons of water for every person in the world! (1 gallon is nearly 4 litres.)



Just look at that blue!

So blue that it looks artificial and hurts your eyes.
