Evaluation of potential sources of water in Crater Lake Natonal Park, Oregon Evaluation of potential sources of water in Crater Lake Natonal Park, Oregon
Crater Lake National Park, in volcanic terrain at the crest of the southern Cascade Range, is well watered by a 67-inch average annual precipitation, measured at park headquarters. Existing park facilities utilize springs that provide quantities of water adequate for present-day as well as foreseeable future needs. Ground water occurs under both perched and water-table conditions in the...

The valley is almost entirely farmed. Its population is increasing rapidly, partly because of the expansion of metropolitan Portland. Structurally, the...
