A Lovely Autumn Afternoon At Manzanita Lake, Lassen Volcanic National Park

A bright, clear autumn afternoon with blue sky at a calm Manzanita Lake with Chaos Crags and Lassen Peak towering over the scene, Lassen Volcanic National Park

Manzanita Lake was created when an avalanche off the slopes of Chaos Crags dammed Manzanita Creek. Now, this tranquil lake is perfect for boating, fishing and swimming. A 1.9-mile easy trail circles the lake for different views of the landscape over which Chaos Crags and Lassen Peak tower.
