- Description
- Description
- This program explores one of the most of beautiful and deepest lakes in the world, Crater Lake in southern Oregon. Shot in high-definition to capture the magnificence of the lake and its surrounding area, the film delves into the formation of the lake by a massive volcanic eruption approximately 7,700 years ago, its prominence in Klamath and Modoc Native American history and culture, and the struggle of William Gladstone Steel, Crater Lake's biggest supporter, to designate it as a National Park in 1902, allowing its pristine splendor to be preserved for generations to come. The film includes historical re-enactments, rare vintage lantern slides and sophisticated computer animation. This program is a chance to witness Crater Lake's past and present while enjoying the almost spiritual experience that comes from seeing such awe-inspiring natural beauty.
