Johnston Ridge Observatory
Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument
Washington
Our next stop was Mount St. Helens. Most of the stops on our trip were inspired by my oldest daughter’s interest in volcanoes. Since the volcanoes in Hawaii were out, Mount St. Helens was an acceptable second. If you ask, Emily will tell you Mount St. Helens was her favorite stop during our vacation.
Johnston Ridge Observatory sits atop a ridge five miles from the crater and affords wonderful views of the volcano and the surrounding landscape.

Our Last View of Old Faithful on Flickr.

Our last evening my girls and I were wandering around the Lower Geyser Basin while Old Faithful was about to erupt. So we waited for it and enjoyed the show.
