Goose Lake is a volcanic sinkhole at the northwestern edge of the Big Lava Flow. Goose Lake formed when the lava flows filled in a former stream valley and formed the lake. The lake once had an outlet in the middle through which the lake level lowered each year in the summer. In 1930 the Forest Service filled in the hole to raise the lake level to improve the fishing. Thus you now see the silvery stumps of ghost trees!

Nice reflections, Phil. I like how you've positioned the lake in the frame, accenting the foreground.

It was great to meet you and Roger, and awesome to better appreciate some of the locations you've been refering to in your recent posts. Thanks again for your tips on where the color was.
Great combination of foreground color and background atmosphere.
