Member Contributer jimbob Posted September 13, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted September 13, 2013 I have not posted here in quite a while so I thought I would try to offer up a bit of our trip to Crater Lake, Or from North Idaho. First this to do was get the GF loaded up... ha ha! We then hit the road to Enterprise OR, via the rattlesnake grades Riding on Central OR is fantastic, Finally we were getting the Volcanic Views....

Member Contributer Cogswell Posted September 19, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted September 19, 2013 You have to see the lake in person to appreciate how blue the water is. Great shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Man, this makes me miss home a bit. Grew up in Klamath Falls, so I know that area quite well. Always wanted to take a ride up to Crater Lake, or even take a ride over to Ashland via 66. Drove it many times, but on a bike... would have been awesome.

Member Contributer huntinggunns Posted September 20, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted September 20, 2013 Great pictures with beautiful scenery. Retirement in a few years will allow me to start checking off all the states in the US and then some. I would love to see this in person.

fabio222 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Those roads look amazing. How come you guys have no potholes in the roads? Our roads are full of them here...budget cuts hurt road maintenance a lot and our wet weather doesn't help (it's not the same as rain in Washington according to an American friend of mine...its colder rain in the winter and hoter, humid rain in the summer, it makes everything damp). Cool photos anyway! Bike is immensly clean too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pot holes are illegal in Oregon.. ha ha, and yes the roads are as sweet as they look. Come and see for yourself! Cool photos anyway! Bike is immensly clean too!

Member Contributer 2thdr Posted October 23, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted October 23, 2013 So for those that have been to Crater Lake, is there actually access to the water and shoreline somewhere?

Member Contributer texasvfr Posted October 23, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted October 23, 2013 Hey Doc. there is no public access to the water. Fish and Wildlife service does limited water quality test and that is all ,they do not want to disturb what is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
