Today is the 40th anniversary of the eruption of Mount St. Helens. I’ll always remember when I went diving in Spirit Lake for OFG to see how life came back. The strangely melodic splish-splash of the floating log raft and the ethereal dance of light are experiences I’ll never forget. Enjoy this photo-essay that I shot and edited from several years ago. --Michael Bendixen, OFG Photographer/Editor | Oregon Field Guide

#40YearsAgo at #MountStHelens, May 10, 1980: For weeks, county deputies have tried to persuade Harry Truman to leave the Spirit Lake Lodge. They drive up the closed Highway to a nearly deserted Spirit Lake and park their vehicle headed homeward in case they need to make a quick get-away. They try for a half-hour to convince Harry, but eventually respect his right to stay. He’s been there every year since the 1920s. But they wonder if he understands the danger. Harry quips that if anything comes

The Floating Logs of Spirit Lake More than 40 years after the explosive eruption of Mount St. Helens, relics from the blast continue to haunt nearby Spirit Lake. The remains of thousands of trees that were violently stripped from the mountainside in 1980 still float on the lake in 2021. But the log mat is more than a reminder of the volcano’s destruction; scientists think it has become an important part of the lake’s ecosystem. Spirit Lake is located just north of Mount St. Helens, in the Cascad

"Forever accompanied by a glass of Coca-Cola and whiskey, Harry says he hates to drink, but people drive him to it." Harry Truman was something of a local celebrity in the time leading up to the Mount St. Helens eruption. He ran the Mount St. Helens Lodge at Spirit Lake, and refused to leave his home on the mountain despite warnings that it would likely erupt. Truman was killed in the blast on this day in 1980. | KATU News
