Casualty Listing
There were a total of 57 casualties as a direct result of the May 18, 1980 eruption of Mt. St. Helens. The number of survivors is not known, as it is unsure how many people were potentially within the mandatory evacuation area that was set up by U.S.G.S. The potential variation within the numbers that were present around the time of the eruption has been contested, and therefore no official number of survivors was ever published.
