410,000 gallons a minute - the natural power & beauty of the Rogue Gorge!

Hidden from the 62 Highway on the way to Crater Lake National Park, Oregon, there is a mighty powerful gorge rushing by.

Even before starting out on the 3.5 mile Rogue Gorge Trail, you could hear the sounds of the river in the distance. You can feel the incredible power of the rushing water and hear it churning through the rocks - enough water to fill an Olympic-size swimming pool each minute!

Glad you enjoyed the video. Ever go rafting on the Rogue? I did it for the first time a few years ago. Nothing too severe as far as whitewater goes, but it was a lot of fun!

family.

And then we loved it so much we made treks there even when not going further up the road.

So may great stories surrounding camping there.
