A glamour shot in front of Mount St. Helens, on a relatively clear day. This is the best view we had, before more clouds moved in the next day:
Entering
Ape Cave, the third longest lava tube in North America, formed probably around 2,000 years ago:
A funky rock formation apparently called "
the meatball" deep inside the cave:
Fun with cameras and flashlights:
The deepest point of the lower cave:
Hiking through the blast zone on the Independence Pass trail. Although it was too cloudy to see St. Helens, we could clearly see Spirit Lake. It is still clogged with thousands of trees from the big eruption on May 18th, 1980... just over a month before I was born!
Along the Independence Pass trail:
Destruction!!
