Looking North to MT Rainier - from
the MT St. Helens blast zone. The
stubbles on the hillsides are all that
remains of the majestic evergreen
forests that once covered the slopes
North of MT St. Helens.

Running through Central Washington
and cutting along the Northern border
of Oregon is the pristine Columbia
Gorge. This mini grand canyon, etched
out by glaciers millions of years ago,
is lined by numerous waterfalls and
rain forest botanicals.

East from Granite Falls, Washington,
we find one of the most amazing
wonders of the Cascade Mountains -
the Ice Caves. Annually, avalanches
and melting ice form this frigid
summertime wonder.

7,700 years ago 12,000 foot MT
Mazama erupted, spewing 150 times
more ash than the 1980 MT ST
Helens eruption. The eruption was
so violent that Mazama emptied its
magma chamber. With nothing left
to support the mass above, Mazama
collapsed upon itself forming the
caldera that filled with rain and
snow to become Crater Lake in
Southern Oregon.
