Yes, I was amazed to learn how close Mt. St. Helens is to Portland, and to see it just to the North. If I had stayed a couple of more days I would have driven out there. Believe there is a visitor's center. How lucky everyone was that it blew up to the North, rather than to the South. Flying in and out of Portland it is quite a sight to see several volcanic peaks sticking up through the clouds!

Hood Thanks John. I agree about the foreground on #1. I'll try a recrop on #3. It's really kind of neat to think about the geology behind the landscape, and that with relatively little warning, one of the Cascades could become active again. None are really dead, just sleeping. One of the things I like about the list is that we can all take mini-trips somewhere else through each others photos.
