Discover the Pinnacles at Crater Lake!

What are the Pinnacles? They are a group of volcanic pumice spires that were formed in the time preceding Mount Mazama’s collapse that formed Crater Lake 7,700 years ago.

Some are long and skinny, others are big and thick. They are all very tall and fascinating geological formations to view! We took our time enjoying the splendor of this unique natural wonder.

Fantastic formations! Our Earth is a wonder! And certain idjits of a certain political persuasion thinks these should belong, not to everyone, but to whomever has the deepest pockets and the right connections. That makes me

You cannot be secretary of interior protecting our national parks and still be in doubt about the reality of climate change. Then again, all of Drumpf's cabinet picks seem to have that in common, doubting science.
