Another shot from Mount St. Helens and the Johnson Ridge Observatory showing the base of the volcano in the background and the upper end of the Toutle River Valley which received most of the mud and ash flow, visible in the picture and carved by the streams that become the Toutle River. The picture below, taken in 2009, is from the other side of the volcano, at Windy Ridge, and shows one end of Spirit Lake and the collapsed cone of the volcano, with the main blast area below. ronaldhanko-orchidhunter.blogspot.com/2013/08/mount-saint-helens.html
