  • This trail is worth the hike for the incredible view of the phantom ship and lake. The cobalt blue color of the lake is memorable.

  • Great views of the Phantom Ship. If you hike the loop counter clockwise, the ascent is a little gentler.

  • This trail is a Top Notch trail. Amazing views of some peaks and two small but great views of Crater Lake. This trail is absolutely worth it even though it's a drive from the main entrance. It is moderately strenuous but unique in it's views and scenery.
  • This loop trail have bountiful view on crater lake
  • Wasn’t too crowded here during the late morning hours. Really enjoyed the views from this spot!
  • The notch above phantom ship, an incredible spot and must see. Great view from Garfield Peak
