That shot compared to the previous pic with H still is hard to believe how much earth was moved. The ash gray water still is running in the rivers and the lakes full of debris which are stunning to realize how many full size trees are still and for decades to come stacked up.
Was cool to see progression of replanting efforts with signage of when they were planted along the parkway.The scale is just so massive.
Yes, humbling to think of the natural force that was created to move that amount of rocks, earth and trees. In total, St Helens released 24 megatons of thermal energy, the equivalent of 1600 Hiroshima atomic bombs.
