These photos are of Mt. St. Helens, 21 years after the eruption and 11 years since our last visit. There are many more trees, Spirit Lake is mostly blue, but there is still so much devastation.

The crater area. This is about as close as you can drive.

Trees near the blast area that remained standing.

The steps to the best observation point. These are the steps from the 631 step legend.

This is Mt Rainier, about 50 miles east of Mt. St. Helens.
