The Stories of Mt St Helens

The Stories of Mt St Helens

The 1980 eruption of Mt St Helens in Washington state was an awesome display of sheer destructive power, with multiple distinct events interweaving in a destructive complex unlike any that had been observed in the modern era.

In this presentation, we'll break down the sequence of events that occurred on that fateful day, as well as the subsequent eruptions that took place over the next few years. We’ll look behind the scenes at the fascinating geologic and biologic features that emerged before, during, and after the eruptions - features that shed light on the kind of catastrophes that took place during and after Noah's Flood.
