A sunset view across the deep blue water of Crater Lake toward Wizard Island, framed by dark evergreen trees in the foreground and a sky streaked with pink, orange and yellow clouds. Wizard Island is a cinder cone that rises roughly 760 feet above the lake surface, formed by volcanic activity after the collapse of Mount Mazama; Crater Lake itself, at nearly 1,950 feet, is the deepest lake in the United States and lies within Crater Lake National Park, established in 1902.
