Places of Interest to visit while you are here:

Mount St. Helens  erupted on May 18, 1980. The volcano , located in southwestern Washington, used to be a beautiful symmetrical cone about 9,600 feet (3,000 meters) above sea level. The eruption, which removed the upper 1,300 feet (396 meters) of the summit, left a horseshoe-shaped crater and a barren wasteland. There is plenty to do near the Mountain including visiting the Johnston Ridge Observatory, hiking, touring the Ape caves, sightseeing, dining and more.

Mount St. Helens is only an hour drive from the home of the Blooms to Brews Marathon in Woodland, Wa!
