Advice for Mount St. Helens Tourists
1. There are about half a dozen visitor centers on your way up the hill. You want the one at the very top.
2. Don't expect much from the exhibits in the visitor center. Instead, hang out by the ranger dudes who can answer every question about three different ways. They're great.
3. When you're driving up the hill and you see the sign for "last gas," you must stop and get gas -- even if you think you're tank's pretty full. Trust me on this one. (And if you're not driving, and you ask your driver if you need gas, convince them they need to stop and get gas no matter what. Trust me on this one.)
