The picture shows Mount St. Helens from Monitor Ridge showing the cone of devastation, the huge crater open to the north, and the post-eruption lava dome inside it. The small photo on the left was taken from Spirit Lake before the eruption and the small photo on the right was taken after the eruption from approximately the same place. Spirit Lake can also be seen in the larger image, as well as two other Cascade volcanos.
