Mount St. Helen's

In July 2003, my parents and I went for a drive to and around the back side of Mount St. Helen's. We went into the lava tunnels, explored some canyons nearby, as well as drove to a lookout on the back side, from where you can see the crater. The last batch of pictures has many felled trees - those were knocked down in the initial blast, and only now some greenery is starting to grow back.
