Summary

Album caption: Aerial view of Mount St. Helens looking north-northeast, Mount Rainier in distance. Distribution of dark ash resulted from wind control of plume drift. Left portion of cone is free of ash, right portion largely covered. Snowstorms later covered these ash layers, which in turn were covered by new ash. The result was many alternating layers of snow and ash. Skamania and Pierce Counties, Washington. March 30, 1980. (Photo no. 80S10-071 by R.M. Krimmel) Published as figure 19 in U.S. Geological Survey. Professional paper 1250. 1981. Index card unavailable.
