Crater Lake Connection

Exciting adventures in beautiful places, without the murders, global conspiracies, and sore feet!

Wizard Island beckons Bob from the rim of the caldera, but the only means of access is blocked at the last minute. There must be another way, right? 

Bob Riley continues to tick hikes off his late wife's bucket list to relieve his unbearable guilt after abandoning her on their long-planned John Muir Trail hike. The only way she can visit these wonders of nature now is through his eyes and thoughts. Next up: the summit of Wizard Island, a volcano within a volcano in Crater Lake National Park. 

He and his current partner, Liz, are both awed and intimidated by the unimaginable forces which crafted the massive caldera. The deep blue elixir in the lake soothes their legs and their souls.

However, can Bob overcome the obstacles to fulfilling his commitment, both natural and man-made?

Will his late wife, Cathy, be satisfied with the majestic views of the vibrant blue lake even if he doesn't reach the summit of Wizard Island?

Does Bob have enough time and energy to satisfy both Liz and Cathy's hearty appetite for adventure?

Is Liz tiring of Bob's continued devotion to his late wife? Will he soon face a choice he dreads?

Join Bob, Liz, and their trail mascot, Marty, as they explore one of the most unique national parks in the country, a massive caldera filled with deepest, cleanest, and bluest water in the United States.
