## Natural Features

Shadow Bay Campground is located on a large bay at the south end of Waldo
Lake. It is considerably wetter than either North Waldo or Islet Campground,
supporting a more diverse and prolific ground cover, and also more mosquitos.
Situated high on the western slopes of the Oregon Cascades at 5,400 feet in
elevation, Waldo Lake is one of the purest lakes in Oregon (9.8 square miles
with a maximum depth of 427 feet). It has no permanent inlet to bring
nutrients into the lake for plant growth. The lack of plant life contributes
to its purity, allowing you to see to depths of 120 feet on a calm day.

## Nearby Attractions

Explore Waldo Lake and surrounding hiking trails for views of the snow-capped
North, Middle and South Sisters, three of the seven major peaks in Willamette
National Forest.

## Overview

Box Canyon Guard Station sits beneath a canopy of Douglas fir at an altitude
of 3,620 feet on the West Cascades National Scenic Byway. It is located
approximately 75 miles southeast of Eugene, Oregon in the Willamette National
Forest. The guard station was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1933
and used as a dwelling for fire guards. They were the smoke chasers, often
riding on horseback through the tall timbers to the location spotted by the
lookout tower guards. The first on the scene, they often tried to put out any
fires they may have found on their own, or reported back for additional help.
The guard station is open from early May through the end of October and is
easily accessible by car. Some creature comforts are provided, but guests
should be prepared to pack in most of their own supplies and gear.

## Recreation

## Overview

Warner Mountain Lookout is the winter wonderland destination for avid winter
sports enthusiasts looking for a challenge. This replica of an old cupola-
style lookout sits on a high vantage point of Warner Ridge at an altitude of
5,300 feet in the Willamette National Forest approximately 75 miles southeast
of Eugene, Oregon.  
  
This is a very remote location; the road to the lookout is not plowed or
maintained for winter travel. The lookout can only be accessed by skis,
snowmobiles or snowshoes, a distance of 2-10 miles. Conditions on the mountain
change rapidly. You need to be evaluating conditions and weather throughout
your stay. Sudden storms and high winds may make skiing and driving conditions
difficult. Experience in cross-country skiing or snowshoe travel is highly
recommended. Guests are responsible for their own travel arrangements and
safety, and must bring several of their own amenities.  
  
The reward is worth the effort of getting there. Guests will enjoy panoramic
views of the pristine snow-covered landscape and starry skies on clear nights.

## Recreation
