Most volcanoes are quiet. They rest peacefully for hundreds of years. No one
pays much attention to them.
Mount St. Helen was one of these volcanoes. It is located in the United
States in southwest Washington and it covers over 35 square miles. Until
1980, it was a beautiful recreation area. Fishermen caught large fish in its
lakes and rivers, families camped on its slopes, and men and women climbed
to its summit. Its last eruption had been 123 years ago. No one was worried
about another one.
But on the morning of May 18, 1980, the mountain blew its top. With the
power of twenty-five atomic bombs, Mount St. Helen exploded. Clouds of dust
and ash rose more than twelve miles into the sky. Rocks and mud crashed
down the slopes.
Unfortunately, many people were still living, camping or working in the
area. Over forty people lost their lives, others were rescued.
