From the Field: Oregon Vacations
At Austin-Lehman Adventures, our guests are our best ambassadors. Here's an excerpt from one couple's journal about their Crater Lake Oregon adventure:"As with all of our previous 6 adventures we have been on with ALA, all the activities were excellent, but Ashland and the Bard were beyond special!"

Oregon: Lake, Lookouts, & Shakespeare
From Shakespeare under the stars to stunning overlooks: Oregon sets the stage
There's a legend in Oregon that says when the first Crater Lake visitors with color cameras took their photos to be developed, Kodak refunded their money, assuming the bright blue in the pictures was unnatural, that it must have been a mistake in the printing process. Little did Kodak know, the impossibly blue hue of Oregon's Crater Lake was, in fact, real.
Crater Lake, the deepest lake in the U.S., is only one of countless natural wonders in Oregon's Crater Lake National Park. By day, raft the world-famous Rogue River, bike along the rim of an extinct volcano and hike the Pacific Coast trail, enveloped in the rich bouquet of pine forests. By night, indulge in fresh, locally grown berries, cheeses and wines and enjoy the rare spectacle of classic theater under the stars at the Ashland Shakespeare Festival.
