Mt. St. Helens

Last Sunday (January 8th), Kevin had the opportunity to climb Mt. St. Helens again (his third time). One of these days I'll get to go with him. We sorta need a grandparent in town because you have to get up early (3am) and head over there. That's a little hard to do with a babysitter.

Because of Sydney's birthday and then our leaving on vacation, I didn't get a chance to post the pictures until now.

Enjoy...

In these next two you can see some hikers/climbers on the ridge of Mt. St. Helens and you can see a bit of the crater that formed after the eruption.

A fellow climber took this last photo. This is looking down into the crate at Spirit Lake with Mt. Rainier in the background.
