Explore Crater Lake National Park
About the Lake: Crater Lake has inspired people for hundreds of years. No place else on earth combines a deep, pure
lake, so blue in color; sheer surrounding cliffs, almost two thousand feet high; two picturesque islands; and a violent
volcanic past. It is a place of immeasurable beauty, and an outstanding outdoor laboratory and classroom. Crater Lake is
located in Southern Oregon on the crest of the Cascade Mountain range, 100 miles (160 km) east of the Pacific Ocean. It
lies inside a caldera, or volcanic basin, created when the 12,000 foot (3,660 meter) high Mount Mazama collapsed 7,700
years ago following a large eruption. Generous amounts of winter snow, averaging 533 inches (1,354 cm) per year, supply
the lake with water. There are no inlets or outlets to the lake. Crater Lake, at 1,943 feet (592 meters) deep, is the seventh
deepest lake in the world and the deepest in the United States. It is also the clearest lake in the world with clarity to 143
feet (43.6 meters). Evaporation and seepage prevent the lake from becoming any deeper. During the winter months guests
can enjoy cross-country skiing tours. During the summer months boat tours around Wizard Island, Trolley Tours
www.craterlaketrolley.com around the Lake perimeter, and Interpretive Park Ranger tours are available.

Optional: Oregon Shakespeare Festival's "Bernhardt/Hamlet"
Location: Allen Elizabethan Theatre (5 minute walk from Ashland Springs Hotel)
"The greatest part ever written . . . the greatest actress ever born"
The year is 1897, and French actress Sarah Bernhardt—a giant of the stage, with a level of celebrity the world has never
before seen—is determined to play one of Shakespeare’s most coveted roles: Hamlet, Prince of Denmark. Director Dawn
Monique Williams transforms the Allen Elizabethan Theatre into a Belle Epoch playhouse for Theresa Rebeck’s fact-meets-
fiction story of a larger-than-life personality. Bernhardt/Hamlet is a profound and profoundly funny comedy about a woman
who unabashedly shattered society’s expectations and glass ceilings on her way to becoming a legend.
