Elevation[edit]

"According to the Geographic Names Information System it has an elevation of 3,461 feet (1,055 m), while the Global Volcanism Program and the United States Geological Survey (USGS) list its elevation as 4,035 feet (1,230 m)." It appears the elevation of Blue Lake itself is 3,461 feet (1,055 m) while the crater has an elevation of 4,035 feet (1,230 m). The change in elevation is due to the fact that the crater has a rim that rises over the lake. Volcanoguy 21:09, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Volcanoguy, for that catch (I should have realized that), and thanks hike395 for fixing it. ceranthor 13:28, 2 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Rate	Attribute	Review Comment
1. Well-written:
	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.	In lead: Remove comma between "three" and "overlapping" for readability Last sentence of first paragraph should be split in two, probably around '2009' Is there a link available for 'spatter cones'? 'Esoteric' is odd word choice here - maybe 'little-known' or 'little-used'? In 'Human history and recreation', typo - 'widlife' should be 'wildlife' Generally good prose, no major issues Fixed issues myself (WP:BOLD) - should be all set now.

Kulongoski[edit]

Is there a reason then-Gov. Ted Kulongoski is mentioned so prominently? If he ''signed'' the bill, that means the bill was passed first, which doesn't make him seem like the central player. I mean, maybe he was, but nothing in the article suggests he was. Still, he's mentioned twice, and (until I removed it) his portrait was included in the article. Seems odd, but it's not a bit of history I know well. -Pete Forsyth (talk) 03:32, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
