Closure ‘no reason’ not to visit Mount St. Helens on ‘erupt-iversary’
Saturday, May 18 marks the 44th anniversary of the eruption of Mount St. Helens.
For the second year, visitors to Mount St. Helens won’t be able to drive to the closest observation center due to a road closure caused by a landslide in May of 2023.
Mount St. Helens Institute volunteer Allen Bennett, who considers May 18, the "erupt-iversary," said the closure is no reason to skip a trip to the volcano.

He said there are more mountain goats than people there these days.
