Lassen Volcanic National Park Oregon

 When friends visited recently we took the opportunity to explore some of our surroundings.  Lassen Volcanic National Park is south of Bend and is rather extensive in size and features.

This photo shows the red cinder cone with a fire watch station at the top.  There's a quarter-mile hike around the cone which is quite easy and offers some 180° overviews of the area.  Unfortunately I didn't get a photo from the bottom of the cone to show it's size and shape.  That's a good enough reason to go back again.
