Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 3,675 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Interesting sidelight, the dome building process at Mt. St. Helens, here in Washington. As I understand the process has ceased, or at least for the time being. But several years ago, we took my cousin, Minnesota Rose, to see the elephant. We were told that something like 23 dump truck loads a minute was the rate that the dome was rebuilding. That is more dirt than the girls on TV can dish out in an hour.

Nice pictures of the crack but none of what is down hill Scroll down some, there are a few shots that show it better. It doesn't take a lot of slope for a slide to happen.

Charlie Harley, #14153 3,348 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 I've spent a good chunk,of my career as an engineer, and been a rafter and paddler longer than that. Both fields have a maxim whether it's ground moisture or glowing rivers and ocean waves... Water Always Wins. Link to post Share on other sites
