May 18, 1980 changed the landscape of a NW mountain, into a volcano shaped visual delight.
sometimes you have to gamble on the weather

I love this Mountain, I’m shocked it doesn’t get more attention.  Driving up to the Johnston Ridge Oberservatory you pass a few closed viewing and learning buildings.  It must of blown it’s budget, get it, blown, as in eruption. ha ha, but I digress.  Enjoy what you’ve got because it can change at any moment. Try looking up pictures of before it blew it’s top, the mountain is weird looking as a whole piece, but i guess it’s because I was 3 when it erupted.  It’s like only knowing your uncle once he became bald.  You don’t remember the flowing hippy hair that he had before he became a forehead farmer.

 

 

I love you Mount Saint Helens,
