Description
On the way up to the Crater of Mount St. Helens is this small lake called Meta Lake
The Meta Lake Trail celebrates life that miraculously escaped devastation during the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens. This broad, paved trail weaves through a lush forest of alpine and noble firs; these trees survived the fiery blast because of their youth and diminutive size. The early-spring eruption leveled tall, mature trees in the area, but, because there was still more than 10 feet of snow on the ground at the time of the blast, the younger, smaller trees along this trail were shielded by a deep snow blanket..

Love this panorama and the reflections in the middle of the lake. This is awesome. I remember when she blew and I don't remember any trees making it. So glad some did and I get to see them here. voted

Thank you Christine, this was our first time all the way up to St. Helens and to see the various sites. It is quite astounding to see all the destruction and thecome back of new growth as well.
