In 1977 we hiked past a simple, plain volcanic cone similar to many others we had passed and paid a lot more attention to spectacular Mt Adams with its glacier coming down the middle looking like it is cutting the mountain in two. Little did we know that our lack of photos of St Helens, pre-eruption would haunt us.  


Here's how the mountain erupted and recovered from Landsat; http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2012/07/landsat-40-significant-images/?pid=4366
