Wizard Island, Crater Lake

Good forOutdoor lovers

Mount Mazama erupted roughly 7,700 years ago and left behind Crater Lake. Wizard Island grew from that same aftermath — a cinder cone rising 760 feet above the lake's surface, reachable only by boat. There is no hiking in, no swimming out. You go by shuttle, or you don't go.
