Someone sent me an e-mail of this last eclipse over Mt. St. Helens. It didn’t come up on my computer. What I know about computers can be found on one page of a very small book. But since I was in Portland May 18, 1980, I would likevery much to see that picture. I have been back twice since then, but health wont allow me to travel any more. Could you ssend me such picture or at least get some one to do so? Sincerely, Phyllis Clemensen

I am co-chair of the Colorado science Convention and we were hoping to use a picture of Mt. St. Helen’s eruption, but when we tried to use the volcanocam the resolution is so poor that we could hardly see what it was. Do you happen to have any pictures of it erupting. Thanks….303-697-6088 Elnore Grow…Our convention is next week, so we must solve this in the next couple of days

There's a great site where you can see a full screen 360 virtual tour inside the crater and view the live web cam. http://www.destination360.com/us/washington/mt-st-helens.php

We (my brothers, our spouses, and children) were there on August 2 this year. So we just missed seeing you – and yes, there wasn’t much snow around St Helens then! (my attempt at humor). We went to honor the life of my father who was one of the USGS scientists that studied Mt St Helens during the May 1980 eruption. He sadly passed away earlier this year, but he had always instilled in us the wonder and the excitement of “mother nature’s way”. Before being transferred to the USGS headquarters in Reston, VA, my father grew up and lived in Washington State. My brothers (I’m a little younger and was born on the east coast) have great memories of the numerous family camping trips to Spirit Lake.

I was completely in awe of this summer’s trip (my first ever) to the mountain. I vowed right then that I wanted to go back in 2 years to hike the path from Johnston’s Observatory to Spirit Lake.

The memories I have of my dad are vivid – and you are doing more for your children than any of you will ever realize. Keep up the great job, Work At Home Dad!

Prior to the eruption in 1980, Mt. St. Helens was a beautiful snow-capped ski resort mountain. The eurption took off over 1300ft of the mountain. Pictures from before the eruption show a mountain looking nothing like the one we see today.

Glad you guys had a good time! But… you obviously weren’t at the same mountain you linked to. Your’s had no snow. Their’s did.
