We found out today that we have to detour around Crater Lake due to fires in the area.
The road today was a gentle, rolling cruise along the Cascade Lakes Scenic Highway for about 40 miles... mostly like this.
We did pass some huge lava fields...
We passed an area near Davis Lake that burned in 2003.
Then, the peaceful, quiet road came to an end.
The road got busier and busier... There wasn't a camping place nearby, so we stopped in Chemult and checked into a classy hotel.
The town seems to be mostly a pass through town for trucks...
We found a restaurant and had a meal and beer that were the best we've ever had... Since last night.
