Mt. St. Helens

Mt. St. Helens
Telephoto view from off Washington State Route 540, the Spirit Lake Highway. The large crater from the May 18, 1980 eruption is obvious, but the vegetation has recovered greatly in the nearly 40 years since.

Andy Rodker, Gudrun, Smiley Derleth, Don Barrett (aka DBs travels) and 2 other people have particularly liked this photo

Oh, they're very common, geologically speaking! But the forest recovers quickly enough that the eruption scars are not immediately obvious on casual inspection.

The crater looks massive from there! I still remember the reports about the eruption/ flank collapse.
