Air Quality Alert issued July 17 at 12:08PM PDT by NWS Medford OR
Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has issued an Air Pollution Advisory...in effect until noon PDT Monday. Wildfires burning in the region combined with forecast conditions will cause air quality levels to fluctuate and could be at unhealthy levels. Smoke levels can change rapidly depending on the weather. People at risk include infants and young children, people with heart or lung disease, older adults and pregnant people. People can take the following precautions to protect their health: * Follow local burn restrictions to prevent deteriorating air quality. * Avoid strenuous outdoor activity during periods of poor air quality. * People with heart or lung problems and young children are especially vulnerable. These people should stay indoors while smoke levels are high. * Use certified High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters in indoor heating, ventilation, cooling and air purification systems. * Avoid using wood-burning stoves and other sources of indoor smoke if possible.

About
Mazama Campground is the primary developed campground within Crater Lake National Park, nestled in a peaceful old-growth forest at 6,000 feet elevation. Located just past the Annie Spring Entrance Station, the campground provides convenient access to Rim Drive and all major park attractions. The 214 sites are distributed across seven loops (A through G), with options ranging from tent-only sites to RV spots with full hookups. Every campsite includes a picnic table, fire ring with cooking grill, bear-resistant food locker, and paved parking. The campground offers flush restrooms, coin-operated showers in Loop F, potable water spigots throughout, and a free dump station. Mazama Village includes a camp store with groceries, firewood, and fuel, plus the Annie Creek Restaurant and gift shop. A 24-hour EV charging station is also available. The campground operates seasonally, typically opening in late May on a first-come, first-served basis when snow conditions allow, then transitioning to reservation-only via Recreation.gov from July through September. Five RV sites are designated ADA-accessible. Pets are permitted on a 6-foot leash in campsite and paved areas. Maximum RV length is 50 feet; maximum trailer length is 35 feet.
