This post makes me feel old. 30 years ago, Mount St Helens erupted and caused devastation to everything around it in Washington State. I can actually remember it. I would have been 12 at the time. I know I can remember it, but I was surprised at the sheer scale of it when I looked at the photos in a timely article but The Big Picture. Once again they have produced a stunning photographic essay of this catastrophic event.
