How are you? Have you heard the recent report on KIRO news, how
somebody on a snowmobile made it all the way to the summit rim
of Mount St. Helens, then fell down inside the crater and lived
to tell of his experience??? What are your personal thoughts on
that? Do you believe people should be riding their gas-powered
snowmobiles to the summit rim of Mt. Saint Helens? Take care!!

I'm doing great! How are you? Actually, I am planning on climbing Mt. St. Helens with the Boy Scouts on May 24th! I am very excited. I personally think that the snowmobiler deserved what he got. I was in a discussion about this today! The crater rim is closed off to a reason, and he was stupid. I really don't like snowmobiles due to their huge impact on the environment, and it makes me very angry that they feel so entitled as to go where all but scientists are forbidden. In my opinion, it should not have been the job of the government to help him due to his own stupidity. Thank you very much for your comment, and have a great day!
This was a walk into a different world. We have no volcanoes in Colorado and it was a unique experience to hike into this area. Great album and thanks for the opportunity to share!
