One of the worthy alternates to the part between Crater Lake and Mt.
Thielsen takes you to the headwaters of the Rogue River. This is an
amazing spot. Within a hundred yards the river leaps fully-mature from
a bunch of springs. It is totally unique... Unfortunately this takes
you to Diamond Lake and you miss the traverse of Mt. Thielsen.
