We went to Mt. St. Helens with Elina last week. This time we went up to Johnston Ridge. It was a very nice day and we had a lot of fun.
In the visitor center there, they have a seismograph that can read you walking or jumping on it. We tried it with Magnus, but he only made very tiny blips on the graph.
Because Spring was long and Summer is having a slow start, there was still a fair amount of snow on the mountain for August. Also, that was the most flowers I have seen there. It was very beautiful.
Here is the four of us in a group shot (I seem to be the only one looking at the camera):
Pretty flowers:
Magnus poses nicely for his solo shot (it was hard to only pick one):
We made a stop at Coldwater Lake on the way back. The water is very clear and we saw lots of fish. And Elina spotted a newt.
