The Kilt & The Volcano

Just to throw my spanner in the works, I was going to suggest that the mountain in question might just be Baker!

Sorry Hamish but Baker is way north of Rainier. Its almost to the Canadian border. Nice try though.

You are right of course, Heath, and I stand corrected.

Thinks: I really must learn to check my maps before diving headlong into these topics!

Stick to what you know best, Bicknell.....

Great pictures.

Regardless what mountain it is, they are stunning photos. Growing up, the only mountains I new were the Smokys. The first time I got to visit Washington, I was amazed at the size of these rocks. The Cascades has my vote for one of the most beautiful areas in the good ole US of A.

The pictures are stunning and very powerful. But in person, it makes you understand the power of Mother Nature. The trees were knocked over like toothpicks. You can be driving in an area totally unaffected by the blast and turn the corner to instant total destruction. The only way to describe it is a nuclear blast.

Life is coming back, they are letting Mother Nature do her thing, no planting of vegation or animals. Fish are swimming again in Crater Lake which I think was boiling after the blast....

Craig,

Cool pix. Definitely like the one where you're turning into the devil with the "horns" on top of your head.

Thank you for sharing these Impressive pictures. I remember a television ad. that suggested that you do not piss off "Mother Nature".

This is weird, I am not getting any photos to show up. Not even a red X.

DALE.

The pictures aren't working for me either. I tried using the direct link and even those didn't work.
