Mt. St. Helens: Blast Crater Hikes & Where to Skip the Crowd

The Johnston Ridge Observatory offers the best angle of the lava dome, but check road status before driving out as closures are frequent. Skip the tourist traps near the base and head to the Harry's Ridge trail for a real look at the 1980 eruption damage. If you hate planning logistics, the small-group tour from Seattle is expensive but saves you hours of driving. Budget four hours total and bring layers because the summit weather changes fast.
