Mount St. Helens is a volcanic peak in southwest Washington state, in the Cascade range. In 1980, after 123 years of relative dormancy, it became unstable again.On May 18, 1980, it erupted violently, blasting tons of rock and ash into the air. The south face of the mountain completely collapsed. The summit, which had been building up as the latest in a series of volcanic domes, was completely destroyed. The eruption killed 57 people and did nearly a billion dollars worth of damage to forests and inhabited areas (1980 US dollars). Ash covered thousands of square miles near the area, to various depths.
Mount Vesuvius destroyed the area to its south, west and northwest.
Mount St. Helens takes its English name from theBritish diplomat Lord St Helens, a friend of explorerGeorge Vancouver who made a survey of the area in the late 18th century.
Mount St Helens was discovered by HMS Discovery, commanded by Commander George Vancouver on May 19th,1792. He named the mountain after the British diplomat, Alleyne Fitzherbert, 1st Baron St Helens, on October 20th 1792.In 1829, Hall J Kelly, started a campaign to rename the Cascade Range, (which Mount St Helens is part of) to the Presidents Range, each major mountain being named after a former president. In his plan Mount St Helens would have become Mount Washington.
