Photo Finish: Mount St. Helens, Part 2
I had intended to focus today’s Photo Finish to Mount Adams, but yesterday I had a chance to go hiking near Mount St. Helens. I spent the day on the Hummocks Trail. The Hummocks are the piles of debris leftover from the collapsed north face of the mountain. The collapse of that side of the mountain uncorked the bottle, allowing the massive explosive eruption in 1980.
So, sit back and let’s a take a brief look at the Hummocks!
