Keep your eyes on the road and be aware of your surroundings. Come along with us as we wade through Olympic National Park’s Lake Crescent - beautiful waters that harbor some truly dark stories. This lake has drawn in people from around the world with its beauty, calling out like a siren. But just like the storied mermaids who use their enchanting calls to lure in sailors, the waters of this lake have drawn in many unfortunate souls that eventually meet a watery demise.



We love our National Parks and we know you do too but when you're out there, remember to enjoy the view but watch your back.
