Description

Wikipedia

Llao Rock is a rock pillar in Klamath County, Oregon, in the United States. It is located on the north rim of Crater Lake in Crater Lake National Park. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 1,870 feet above the lake in 0.28 mile. The rock pillar was named after Llao, a Native American god. The landform's toponym was officially adopted in 1897 by the United States Board on Geographic Names. Llao Rock (specifically, the Llao Rock Research Natural Area) has been off-limits to summer hiking since 2013 to protect the rare and sensitive plant species which somehow survive in this windswept location. The closure is effective whenever the area "is covered by less than one continuous foot of snow".
