(S/NF/SK) MISSION: Stage 1, Phase 1 training (but a Phase 2 site was attempted). Site was Crater Lake (mountain/water interface). 2. (S/NF/SK) VIEWER TASKING: Coordinates 4251/1002. 3. (S/NF/SK) COMMENTS: 025 correctly perceived and decoded the mountain gestalt. It was pointed out by the trainer that the (excellent) representative ideogram "went away" as soon as it was correctly decoded. The water (lake) presented a problem of perspective; the viewer had not yet been trained to produce a circular ideogram (i.e., a horizontal perspective) , consequently decoding (horizontal vs vertical) was difficult and AOL resulted. But the trainer pointed out that the ideogram kept "coming back", reinforcing the self-correcting feature of the ideogram. 025 still exhibits a tendency to "search" for a B prematurely, i.e., before gathering an adequate amount of percepts (after several iterations of the coordinates). Also, there is still a residual tendency to analyze the ideogram. These errors are easily correctable, however. Ideogram drills will follow this training session. 4.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Deep-blue Crater Lake occupies the cavity created by the loss of Mazama's crown S EVENTEEN cubic miles of the mountain van- ished in the cataclysm, leaving a caldera six miles wide and 4,000 feet deep (above). Years passed before the crater cooled. Rain and snow gradually filled the basin to about half its depth. Jagged cliffs imprison the glassy surface, a 20- square-mile mirror (below). Water's depth, 1,932 feet, surpasses that of any other lake in the United States. Even so, its surface lies 500 to 2,000 feet below the caldera's rim. 131 1 1 : Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R001500850001+2
