Mount St. Helens Report

Let’s begin with Mount St. Helens which is located in the pacific northwest of the United States. To be more specific it is located in Washington State and is a part of the Cascade mountain range that spans from California to Canada. It is a composite volcano, which has steep sides that are formed by alternating layers of lava

There are times in our lives in which certain events change a part of us, either emotionally, physically or mentally. In our own meaningful way, we have a storm like O’Conner, in which we go through an impactful change.

It was May 18th, 1980. The eruption of Mount St. Helens occurred in Washington,United States. The exact time it had happened is at 8:32:17. The eruption happened 96 miles out South of Seattle, Washington and 50 miles northeast of Portland,Oregon. Many people died during this time. About 50 people had died. 250 homes were destroyed. Along with 47 bridges, 15 miles of railways, 185 miles of highway was also destroyed. Many tiny earthquakes had happened a couple days before the eruption had happened.

On May 18th, 1980 one of the worst volcanic eruptions occurred in the United States. Triggered by an earthquake, Mount St. Helens erupted in Washington State at 8:39am. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, it was "the deadliest and most economically destructive event in the history of the United States." There were many effects from this terrible, natural event. People, animals, and the environment were all effected.

Voted the second most beautiful vista in America, Mount Washington is a well-known overlook of downtown Pittsburgh. Mount Washington, now a beautiful mountain with a tree covered Cliffside, was not always known for its sights. Many are unaware of the dirty environment that it used to be. Once known as Coal Hill, Mount Washington was the location of many coal mines. Back in the late 1800’s, this mountain was the source that fueled and built Pittsburgh. From the ravaging coal minds to the breathtaking Inclines, there is a lot of history that is hidden under the beautiful area which we now know as Mount Washington.

Senator Peter Norbeck was Mount Rushmore's great political patron and promoter of the construction of the giant structure. Norbeck helped raise almost a million dollars for the project during the years of the Great Depression.

Growing up by Mount Newton I had never heard the First Nation History to the mountain. The story of Mount Newton is that an elder gathered the community together to tell them that they would no longer be safe in their homeland because the tides were rising. He warned them that they had to temporarily move up to the top of the Mount Newton to avoid the high tide. The community listen to the elder and gathered up their canoes and belonging and headed to the summit. As the sea waters began to rise up higher than the top of Mount Newton the community members had to tie a rope between their canoes and an arbutus tree and float above the land. The First Nation’s were floating in their canoes when a raven arrived to tell them the flood would soon be over. The raven traditionally in

Mount St. Helen is a very active volcano classified as a stratovolcano, stratovolcano is basically a tall volcano built up of layer after layer of hard lava, tephra, pumice, and volcanic ash. Mount St. Helens location is in Skamania County in Washington, with coordinates of 46 12'00.17"N122 11'21.13"W. Mount St Helen is famous because of its catastrophic eruption on May eighteenth in nineteen eighty. The eruption measured a five on the volcanic explosivity index. This is an index created by Chris Newell and Steven Self in the year nineteen eighty-two it was designed to try and measure the explosiveness of volcano eruptions to determine the value of the explosivity and qualitative observations ranging from zero to eight, eight being the

Throughout history, great importance has been placed on the existence of God. Every civilization through time has sought some sort of reassurance that their is a higher being the watches over humanity. The evidence of this belief can be seen in the tombs of the Egyptians, in the sculptures of the Greeks and in the customs of the African tribes, among many other cultures. It seems that the existence of a deity is something that every culture comes to accept at some time or another. In "Would Tarzan Believe in God?", the authors say that, "...many cognitive scientists see the universality and pervasiveness of religious belief as suggesting that it is a natural feature of evolved human psychology." (Banjeree, pg. 1) There are none who would

Mount St. Helens Location: Washington, United States Latitude: 46.20 N Longitude: 122.18 W height: 2,549 meters or 8,364 feet - 9,677 feet before May 18, 1980 Type: Stratovolcano Number of eruptions in past 200 years: 2-3 Latest Eruptions: Between 1660-1700, around 1800-1802, 1831, 1835, 1842-1844, 1847-1854, 1857, 1980-? Present thermal activity: strong steaming Nickname: Mount Fuji of the West Remarks: continuous intermittent activity since 1980 with occasional eruptions of steam and ash; occasional pyroclastic flows; intermittent dome forming. MSH is considered a young volcano that developed over the last 40,000 years and is one of the most active volcanoes in the Cascade Range. Geologists predicted that the

The cities of Weed, Mount Shasta City, McCloud, and Dunsmuir lie in the shadow of Mount Shasta and could be devastated by an eruption. They lie close enough to the base of the mountain that they could suffer damage from pyroclastic (hot gas, rock, and ash) and lava flows, tephra (rock fragments and particles ejected by a volcanic eruption)., lahars (destructive mudflow), and ballistic ejecta. Based on recent behavior, it is not likely that Mount Shasta will erupt catastrophic volumes soon. However, smaller eruptions are possible. At least ten eruptions have taken place in California in the past 1,000 years according to the USGS. Most recently, Lassen Peak in Lassen Volcanic National Park had a series of eruptions from 1914 to 1917. Concerned people and groups work with the government to hopefully solve or at least slow global warming which could be so disastrous to not only Mount Shasta but the entire planet Earth. Government funded studies had verified that the Mount Shasta area is the ancestral home of the Wintu tribe and the mountain is central to the Indian belief systems (Nabov). People must be aware of the delicate balance that can easily be disrupted and treat the area with respect and care to preserve the beauty for coming generations. Mount Shasta was designated a National Landmark in December of 1976.
