BREAKING NEWS! As of this morning, 1/26/12 the road from the Crater Lake Park Headquarters to the Lodge is closed because of avalanche danger. They had a lot of snow in December then a warm spell with a little rain. Now it is snowing again. This a a real recipe for an avalanche.

If the timing is right, stop for a meal at the Indian Creek Cafe at the north end of Gold Beach (if northbound, turn right off of 101 just before the bridge; if southbound, turn left leaving the bridge). It's about 1/2 mile in and the food is very good.

You might also consider staying up at classic Timerline Lodge at Mt.Hood - about an hour from Portland (where they have filmed movies - such as The Shining - with Jack Nicholson) - On the way there - or the way back - drive along the mighty Columbia and see the 7 waterfalls - including Multnoma - the highest in Oregon (and also Wash?).

Just to clarify: I believe Multnoma Falls has the longest single free falling segment - over 500 feet - and it's situated right above where they built the restaurant - which has a glass roof and you can look up and see the falls while having breakfast, lunch, cup of coffee, etc.
