Mount St. Helens: The Continuing Story

by James P. Quiring

Look around--the volcanic landscape of Mount St. Helens, in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, displays remarkable diversity and resilience. Trees and plants are combining to lay a fabric of green over the rocky ground, and wildlife appears with surprising abundance. Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument, located in southwestern Washington, was established in 1982 under Forest Service management to allow for natural regrowth and change following the 1980 eruption.
