I don't' know how, but there are still several patches of snow on the ground, even though it's in the 90's during the day. We hiked up Mt Scott, the highest peak in the park. In 2 1/2 miles the trail climbed 1,500 feet. It was a tough hike, but the views were worth it. Along the trail and at the top, we had the most incredible views of Crater Lake, along with Mt Shasta, Diamond Peak and Diamond Lake, among others. We were the first ones on the trail. As we were heading down, we saw lots of people on the way up. It's getting hot and we're really glad we started early!
