View from Weyerhaeuser Visitor Center. Around 1982 Weyerhaeuser replanted this hillside which had been stripped bare by the pyroclastic flow from the eruption of Mount St Helens in 1980.

North view of Mount St Helens just outside the Johnston Ridge Observatory. Note the collapsed front portion of the crater from the 1980 eruption and the new plug forming in the rear of the crater.

Johnston Ridge Observatory provides the closest view of the north side of Mount St Helens crater.
