Mt. St. Helens, Washington, in eruption, August 7, 1980. This eruption was during the early ephemeral dome-building stage that followed the catastrophic May 18, 1980 eruption that destroyed the upper 2,300 feet (682 meters) of the volcano. Eruption column is laden with ash. High winds are tilting the eruption to the northeast. View from the south. Photograph by R. Forrest Hopson.
