Summary

Description
English: Mount St. Helens erupted often between 1980 and 1986. An explosive eruption on March 19, 1982, sent pumice and ash 9 miles (14 km) into the air, and resulted in a lahar (the dark deposit on the snow) flowing from the crater into the North Fork Toutle River valley. Part of the lahar entered Spirit Lake (lower left corner) but most of the flow went west down the Toutle River, eventually reaching the Cowlitz River, 50 miles (80 km) downstream.
Date Taken on 21 March 1982
