Template:Short description Script error: No such module "about". Template:Infobox mountain Hole-in-the-Ground is a large maar (volcanic explosion crater) in the Fort Rock–Christmas Lake Valley basin of Lake County, central Oregon, northeast of Crater Lake, near Oregon Route 31.[1]

It is about Script error: No such module "convert". across, a little longer N-S than E-W.[1] Its floor is about Script error: No such module "convert". below the surrounding ground level and has a rim that rises Script error: No such module "convert". above, the highest point on the east side. The crater formed during the late Pleistocene, between 13,500 and 18,000 years ago, at which time the Fort Rock basin was a lake and the location was near the shore. Basaltic magma intruding near the surface flashed ground water to steam, which blew out overlying rock and soil, along with some juvenile material. As material slid into the hole formed, it closed the vent and the process repeated, eventually forming the huge hole.[2] Blocks as large as Script error: No such module "convert". in size were flung as far as Script error: No such module "convert". from the crater.[3]

To the west of Hole-in-the-Ground is an even bigger maar, Script error: No such module "convert"., but older and more eroded, called Big Hole.
