Mt. St. Helens
7/02/2026

   Made it to the mountain, but had to change plans twice once there   

The vista point Google Maps told me I could drive to was actually 4 miles past the locked gate.

Picked a secondary vista point, and was hustled off by the Forest Ranger

as they were preparing to close that location.

Picked a third vista point, but this one required a 30 minute hike, which added an hour to my day.
