  1. After a frustrating morning of low clouds, mist and foggy weather we decided to watch the movie they offered. At the end of the film, the curtains behind the screen opened to a sheet of pure white fog; normally a stunning view of the crater and mountain. When we left the theatre there was a slight and hardly noticeable...

  2. Windy Ridge is one of the best places to get an overview of the area devastated by the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens. The landscape is littered with sand and gray rocks from that event. Deposits of the debris avalanche are visible to the west. These include the lower parts of The Spillover, where the debris avalanc...

  3. The Johnston Ridge Observatory sits on a bluff just 5-1/2 miles from the crater at an elevation of 4,314'/1,327m and offers grand views of Mount St. Helens and much of the 1980 blast zone. Here you can enjoy spectacular views of the lava dome, crater, pumice plain and the landslide deposit.

  4. At least this roadcut was below the clouds. You can see the 1980 ash deposit near the top of the cut.

  5. This was supposed to be a spectacular shot of the new lava domes in the crater formed by the 1980 eruption. Instead, it's just a view of the pyroclastic deposits downslope of the crater. I suppose the weather could've been worse.

  6. Johnston Creek has carved steep canyon walls, but where mineral water seeps out of these walls the seepage and mineral deposit builds up the surface. The mineral deposits are paler than the underlying Basalt rock, an example of which is in the bottom left of this image. In this Fall picture the water is starting to fre...
