	Glimpses of Our National Parks
		Carlsbad Caverns, like most caves, is a series of openings in a massive limestone which were made by percolating ground water.
		The Carlsbad limestone in which these caverns were formed was laid down originally in a sea of muddy water some 200 million years ago.
		After the great series of chambers forming the main portions of the caverns were formed, nature took up the task of decorating them with a myriad of beautifully sculptured effects in the form of stalagmites, stalactites, more irregular spiral forms known as helectites, enormous columns, curtains seemingly of alabaster, and other limestone ornamentations.

		Seuss, even in his wildest dreams, couldn't have created anything as weird and wonderful as the caves in Carlsbad Caverns National Park.* Entering any of the park's 94 caves is like entering a psychedelic world where drips of limestone-laced water have been transformed into myriad peaks and spires.
		The brilliant blue waters of Crater Lake have stunned visitors for years, and the thrill of gazing at the mirrorlike waters never grows old.
		But Crater Lake National Park* is not just for onlookers: This is a park full of hands-on, outdoor adventure.

		RATER LAKE is a scenic gem cupped in the crater of an extinct volcano.
		Coming suddenly on the rim of the vast crater which holds the lake, one stands silent with emotion, deeply impressed by the hues of blue and intensity of color of the water, and by the grandeur of the towering cliffs which completely surround the lake.
		The many rock formations exposed in the crater wall as well as other features on the rim are evidence that such a peak once existed, and that a great catastrophe occurred during which the peak was destroyed and the crater formed.

		Spirit then began the 35-meter (114.8 feet) combination directed and autonomous navigation drive down the rocky, ejecta-covered side of "Bonneville Crater." Fifteen meters (49.2 feet) of the drive were directed by rover planners and did not require the rover to use its hazard avoidance software.
		The remaining 20 meters (65.6 feet) were navigated by Spirit autonomously and did cause the rover to make some back and forth adjustments as it avoided what it perceived to be a depression hazard in its path.
		The afternoon hours were dedicated to intensive study of a handful of targets on Bounce, including the impression ground by the rock abrasion tool on sol 66.

	Crater Lake National Park - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It was established on May 22, 1902 as the fifth National Park in the U.S. The park encompasses Crater Lake's caldera, which rests in the remains of a destroyed volcano posthumously called Mount Mazama.
		The battle was witnessed in the eruption of Mt. Mazama and the creation of Crater Lake.
		The first known Caucasians to visit the lake were a trio of gold prospectors: John Wesley Hillman, Henry Klippel, and Issac Skeeters who, on June 12, 1853, stumbled upon the long, sloping mountain while looking for a lost mine.
