Mt. St. Helens/Winter
Buy this Poster at AllPosters.com
If you want to catch a view of Mount St. Helens smoking away, and spend a few days in the area, check out these resources as you plan your trip.
Remember that this famous volcanic mountain is located in Washington state, and due to cloud cover, the mountain is not always "out" as the locales say.
Make sure that you check for current conditions and road closures. The instability of the volcano makes it impossible to predict what areas and visitor centers will be open.
You can also call 360-891-5202 for recorded updates. At this time, the mountain is closed to all climbing.
