Lost Lake in Oregon’s Mount Hood National Forest is something of a local conundrum. Filled by mountain streams during Winter, the lake drains down a lava tube, emptying like a bathtub every Spring.

Last week I decided to try turn one of the weird little ideas that pop into my head into a short animated sketch.
