Origins

The lake was formed when glaciers carved out deep valleys during the last ice age. This gives Lake Crescent almost the look of a fjord and great depth. Many geologists believe that Lake Crescent and nearby Lake Sutherland were once the same lake, but became separated by a landslide.

Ecology

Lake Crescent is known for its brilliant blue waters and amazing clarity, which are caused by a lack of nitrogen in the water, inhibiting the growth of algaes.
The lake is also home to two unique species of fish, the Beardslee trout, the Crescenti trout.
