. get this far you must see it all
: we took in all we could that
evening, watched the sunset ovel
the lake, seeing the Phantom
Ship with almost the last rays;
then up in the morning to watch
the sun rise from the same points
Eagle Point being where we
thought we got our best shore
views morning and evening. Then,
after breakfast, We took the trail
to the waters edge, and row
boat for Wizard island, which
don't fail to see. We climbed TO
the rim OF the crater, which is
a strenuous trip, but II pays. Part
OF us felt almost like giving up
the last stretch, but a 12-year-
old boy called down the cliff:
ooh, mother, come and see a
sight you will remember all your
life." which gave he new courage
and we were amply repaid.
The view as we climbed the
sides of the mountain island and
on the rim OF the crater being
the Very finest, the vivid, inde-
scribable coloring OF the walls of
Crater lake being reflected per-
fectly in the blue waters; and
one of the strange parts OF it is
that you can only walk a few feet
without a change in the reflection.

But I, for one. was too full
for utterance" and ready to leave
at 1880 the second day, with the
hope OF someday spending
longer time and taking it more
slowly. We spent about twenty |
perfect hours literally on the bank
of the lake, and although the
moon was far on the wane, some
Of our party had a moonlight
view.
August 6, we started for Pelican
bay, stopping to view the famed
Anna creek canyon, in which is
located the beautiful Garden of
the Gods" etc., etc, the only
other stop being Fort Klamath,
for some supplies. Engaging our
night quarters, we took row
boat to fish, going to Hartman
Lodge and other interesting points.
In the morning we took a mo-
tor boat and went over into
klamath lake, as far as the log
ging RATS. or boom, where We
saw one of our nest wonderful {
sights - thousands of pelicans '
that seemed to be making a roost-

most of them flew, filling i
