Three mystical peaks in Oregon with a pool of freshwater fit for Satan himself to the south – Clear Lake that has a petrified forest perfectly preserved beneath its depths, and icy waters whose temp hovers right around freezing all year long, next Lost Lake that disappears down a deep hole, emptying it's mysterious waters to where? Some believe into Clear Lake. So damn strange. Then there's Devil’s Lake, a serial killer, indigenous legends and spiritual touchstones and more! I even close the episode with an easy Halloween costume for an area cryptid if you're still looking for what to wear. Let's get into it!
***This episode is dedicated to Marlene K. Gabrielsen and the victims of violent crimes, not just along Highway 20, but throughout the world. Let love and peace reign***
