What about theft? Is that allowed?

I'll never understand Larry, a sane person would be running like hell when seeing a mountain blow its top. You, break out your camera.

Learn to be more afraid. :)

I've thought it was Hendrix from the instant I first saw it, and the mic seals the deal.

Some one told me a while ago that the Loo-Wit poster was in the Hendrix Museum in Seattle. Others said they hadn't seen it.

Hope your folks like it as well, Rog.

The ash cloud has a very fractal appearance, which I guess is actually the way it might work.

(Oh - and indeed it's a remarkable photo!)

Larry, the Legend of Loo-Wit is wonderful too, how about posting it for the others.

I often look at this picture in my office and I have seen many faces, my latest was a Roman Centurian. What can I say? I still love lying on my back, looking at the clouds, with my grand-daughter.

Wow, beyond awesome. I happened to be in Vancouver (BC) that day and I was so disapointed that I wasn't in Vancouver (WA).

For contrast here is a pair of shots in 2002 and 2007:

Is it a hard climb, Phil? To get to the top of what's left of the mountain, or is it just an up hill hike?

It is not climbing, just a long hard rock scramble. About a ten hour round trip.

I've did it three times, and this last time for the last two hours I kept telling myself "This is the last ******* time I'm climing this sucker..."

I suppose the mountain is getting bigger each time, can't be anything to do with me.

Philip--do you know how that climb compares to Mt. Hood? Megan and I climbed Mt. Hood in July of '78, and it was a serious effort, although "non-technical" since we didn't have to rope up. Still, Megan almost slid into a crevasse. It still gives me shivers of fear remembering those 8 seconds.

No one's died (AFAIK!) on St. Helens recently, several on Mt Hood, including a couple who went over the edge of the Eliot Glacier.

Perhaps some day an archeologist will find bodies encased in ice. They will be clothed in a stange fabric, derived from petrol. They will have cell phones which the archeologists will have major arguments over what they are! :D
