VANCOUVER, WA - MARCH 8: Mount St. Helens in Washington state is seen in this handout photo from the U.S. Geological Survey from the Cascade Volcano Observatory Office roof March 8, 2005 in Vancouver, Washington. The mountain released a towering column of steam and ash thousands of feet into the air as seismic activity signaled the reawakening of the 9,677-foot mountain. The volcano erupted on May 18, 1980, killing 57 people. (Photo by Matt Logan/U.S. Geological Survey via Getty Images)
