A large subalpine lake in Willamette National Forest, ringed by wilderness

Field note

Waldo Lake sits at 5,420 feet in the Willamette National Forest, in Lane County. It is nearly ten square miles, and 420 feet at its deepest. The Waldo Lake Wilderness rings the shore. Oakridge is the town. Crater Lake, Diamond Peak, and Broken Top keep their own plates. This plate is Waldo Lake.

Waldo Lake is the clear water at 5,420 feet in the Willamette National Forest. The wilderness rings the shore. This plate is that lake, not Crater Lake and not Broken Top.
