Diamond Lake
Day 23 - Monday
There was talk of going to Yosemite National Park but we've heard that the Ferguson Fire is burning in the Sierra National Forest, and causing very poor air quality. We've decided to meet our friends, Adam and Bethany, at Diamond Lake for two nights. We are all excited to see new people and be headed to Oregon!!
About an hour before we reached Klamath Falls, we discovered that there are fires burning here too. There is one only five miles from Crater Lake National Park, so it was a smoky drive.
We'd never been to Diamond Lake but it's a lovely campground right on the lake. We all went to the day use area and the kids were pleased to be in the water an making friends. The family next to us challenged the fellas to a dudes-only Kan Jam game. They've declined.
We're hoping the wind changes direction, so we can head to Crater Lake tomorrow. Side note: we've been banned from campfires at every stop until we reached Diamond Lake. However, it's the only place where we've been fogged in by smoke and only a few miles from active forest fires. Seems off.
