Description: One of my favorite places in Crater Lake is Sun Notch. Quiet, beautiful panoramas of the caldera walls and the endless azure of the lake. Here is a shot of Phantom Ship, the ancient volcanic core exposed and stranded by the collapse of Mount Mazama and its filling with snowmelt and rain. Beyond are the walls of Wineglass Cove (right) and Cleetwood Cove (left). Behind at the left is Mount Thielsen, a volcano which has been worn away by time and glaciers until it is little more than a needle in the sky. Crater Lake National Park, Oregon
