Mount St. Helens is a volcanic mountain located in Silverlake, Washington. It is part of the Cascade Range and is situated in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. The mountain is known for its catastrophic eruption in 1980, which caused widespread destruction and loss of life.

Mount St. Helens was formed over thousands of years through a series of volcanic eruptions. The mountain is made up of layers of lava, ash, and other volcanic materials. It is considered a stratovolcano, which means it has a steeply sloping cone with many layers of hardened lava and volcanic ash.

The 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens was one of the most significant volcanic events in the United States in the 20th century. It occurred on May 18, 1980, and was caused by a 5.1 magnitude earthquake. The eruption caused the entire north face of the mountain to collapse, sending a massive landslide of debris and ash down the mountain.

The eruption also caused a lateral blast that sent a cloud of hot ash, gas, and rocks across the surrounding landscape. The blast killed 57 people and caused significant damage to homes, buildings, and infrastructure in the surrounding area.

Today, Mount St. Helens is closely monitored by scientists. The area around the mountain has been designated as a National Volcanic Monument, and visitors can explore the mountain and the surrounding landscape through a network of trails and visitor centers.
