Was equal to about a 24 megaton bomb going off.



This crazy rock slab in the crater was growing @4-5ft everyday as was estimated at about 400+ft tall.





Harry Truman is still entombed at his lodge 150ft below debri.

I took a PSA flight from SFO to Sea-Tac about a month after the eruption. The pilot took a couple of steep orbits over the caldera, one for each side of the plane.   It was like looking at the surface of the moon. Unbelievable.

I've got a jar of ash from the eruption.  Collected in Spokane a few days after the event.  Some 260 miles ENE of the mountain.  I use it as a paper weight on my desk.  It's fun to shake up and watch the ash settle.

Thats fantastic the way the floating log mass moves around the lake depending on which way the wind has been blowing.

Yeah every time I've seen the lake the log mass is in a different spot.

Melted dashboard about 8 miles north of Mt. St. Helens shows the intense heat that far away from the core eruption.

I was in high school when it blew. The devastation was incredible. The only comparable destruction is from a nuke going off. It stripped the land of everything for miles, no bushes, trees, or even stumps until you got about 5 miles away from the crater. Then the trees were all lined up parallel with all of their branches stripped off for more miles. I still remember watching that house float down the Toutle river and slam into the I-5 bridge.

I was nine.. As I was getting ready for our boy scouts field day in Issaquah I heard it blow.  That was one crazy day.

Harry Truman is one man that never left my memory.  I remember thinking "that guy doesn't care one bit...he's crazy" but I admired him a bit too.

Sporty:  I was mesmerized by that house as well...

Heard it in Oregon City, remember seeing it in the distance from the hilltop.
Harry loved that mountain as much as his wife and she was buried up there and is why he would not leave.
OMSI used to have a helluva section of floor space just for Mt. St. Helen, until I saw it from the air in 87 it did not really click in my young mind how epic in scale the forest was battered.

Mt. Rainer is listed as one of the most dangerous volcano's in the world. Claims about 2 lives a year from climbers.

A good read on it.
