HURRY, Before It Closes?! We Swam in America’s Deepest Lake | Van Life at Crater Lake

Описание: We visited Crater Lake National Park and swam in America’s deepest — and bluest — lake… just before it closes! In this van life adventure, we explore the jaw-dropping beauty of Crater Lake, hike the Cleetwood Cove Trail to reach the freezing-cold shoreline, and take a once-in-a-lifetime dip before this iconic trail shuts down until 2029 for major renovations.

We teamed up with a fellow van life friend to experience the full Rim Drive scenic loop, tried (and failed) to hike Watchman Trail for a view of Wizard Island, and wrapped up our trip with peaceful forest vibes on Godfrey Glen Trail — a perfect hike for dogs.

Back at our campsite, we cooked up delicious tacos and knocked out a few van life chores in a DREAM overnight location on Diamond Lake. This experience is one we’ll never forget. If you're planning a trip to Crater Lake, don’t miss your chance before access disappears for years!

Who the heck are we? Well...
We are Ryan, Mary & Cisco. We live FULL-TIME on the road in our converted Ram Promaster van in hopes of seeing this beautiful world & making lifelong memories together. Crazy to believe, but...we've been in our van for a YEAR now! Time is certainly flying & we are loving every step along the way, out here. We thank the good Lord for this opportunity to see, learn, and experience brand new places in our home-on-wheels. We would love to have you along for the journey...to laugh with us, cry with us, celebrate with us and, of course, fail & pick up the pieces with us.
