Crater Lake National Park is an incredible feat of nature. After erupting, a mountain collapsed in on itself to form a crater. It filled with glacial runoff over time to create the bluest lake you will ever see. Crater Lake has hiking trails, and island you can visit, and mountains you can climb. The lake and surrounding mountains make good witnesses to any wedding ceremony.
