  • Removed disputed fact about crater lake, not supported by [nb 1] hike395 (talk)
    • What? This fact is completely supported by that ref, which states on p. 462 that "This cave system, however, hosts a small crater lake," etc. I know that you removed the sentence in good faith, but please check the refs more carefully next time before deleting correct facts. I've already re-added the info to the article a few minutes ago, along with that reference and 2 more, one of which provides dimensions and elevation data for the lake. The info was never really in dispute, but an anonymous IP had needlessly added that tag in April 2008, just because he or she hadn't previously heard of the lake (see diff [2]). --Seattle Skier (talk) 04:54, 14 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • Removed second disputed fact, contradicted by USGS official quoted at [nb 2] hike395 (talk) 04:14, 1 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
