Visit this "lake" that is actually a crater from an ancient volcanic vent. Though the lake itself is not of tremendous size, the area offers spectacular views of other past volcanoes, such as the San Francisco Mountains, Kendrick Mountain, and the White Horse HIlls. This trail is surrounded by plant and animal wildlife so be sure to stick to the trail and follow LNT practices.
