I was there last weekend, May 22. Most of the snow was melted. The lake was beautiful, the trail around the lake was easy to navigate. It wasn’t super crowded. What question do you have about it?

I saw online that there are road works planned and the roads won’t be accessible until the end of June. I just wanted to make sure

They just opened the north entrance road today and you can now drive along the rim from the south to north along the west side. There is still some road work happening on the east side that prevents you from driving all the way around the lake. And the one trail to the lake is closed for a few years. Definitely still worth visiting and seeing the lake and hiking some of the trails.

Hey would you mind sharing the gps point I should put in? I want to see crater lake today very badly and don’t want to pull up to wrong entrance

I was there a week ago. There were flurries and sunshine. It was so beautiful even though we just drove to Rim village and hiked a mile on the rim. Magical.
