As if we didn't see enough volcanoes in Iceland (OK, actually, we really only saw one), I detoured out to see Mount Saint Helens. Unfortunately, the Windy Ridge road was closed for the winter still, so I had to satisfy myself with seeing the view from the main road from the west. (Dan and Heather said the Windy point view gives you a more raw perspective, since this is the side that Weyerhauser hasn't replanted yet, so all the devastation is still on display. From this vantage, tho, you still can see the side of the mountain that exploded outwards. There's also a great shot of the volcano here.
