>From the Sunday April 15 Portland Oregonian newspaper:

Below-normal snowfall means
earlier access to Crater Lake

Snow levels one-third of normal mean early access to
Crater Lake National Park for tourists and campers.

Visitors arriving from the north will be able to use the
park's north entrance off Oregon 138 beginning May
25, three weeks earlier than normal. Park officials
expect to open the Mazama campground in time for
the Memorial Day holiday and allow traffic on the
32-mile Rim Road around June 1. Normal opening for
both is late June or early July.

The summer season at the historic Crater Lake Lodge
begins May 19 as scheduled.
