28 Years After the Eruption - Mount St. Helens, Washington

1980, Mount Saint Helens erupted, blowing the side off the mountain. Today, it's still steaming, and a great tourist attraction!


Here's what's left of the mountain. There's a magma dome building in the middle still.


That "stuff" in the lake below is actually trees--thousands of trees that were literally blown off the mountain and into the lake!



While I was there, I met a bear named Ted that travels the world too. We just had to get a picture together.


Oh, and I got to see the Seattle Space Needle too :-)
