Welcome to MountStHelens.com, the information and resource center for the Mount
St. Helens area.   We welcome your input, and questions. If you should have any specific
requests, please feel free to give us a call at 360.274.7750 or
e-mail us.

While some of the best weather is in the spring, summer and fall, every season is
wonderful. The winter snows provide a beautiful vision of the mountain and surrounding
hillsides. The
Silver Lake and Hoffstadt Bluffs visitor centers are open year round. All
of the merchants are also open year-round for your convenience. The
Johnston Ridge
Observatory and Forest Learning Center are open May through October. Please
note that Coldwater Ridge Visitor Center was decommissioned last year - visit the Forest
Learning Center instead - it has better exhibits - and it has FREE ADMISSION !

Not sure what to see ?  Its easy - stop at
Hoffstadt Bluffs - M.P. 27 for food, helicopter
tours, glass blowing exhibits and shopping - its free; Continue to M.P. 33 and stop at the
Forest Learning Center for great exhibits and more cool shopping - its also free and a
great Mt. St. Helens adventure for the whole family.    For the highlight of your Mount St.
Helens Vacation adventure go to the road end at Johnston Ridge Observatory for the
photo-op of the day and watch the short movie there.  Its $8/person to go in the visitor
center.  If you are on a budget its still well worth the drive up to sight-see from the
viewpoints along the highway.  Look for elk and eagles that are in the area.  

If you have room on your plastic - the helicopter tour from Hoffstadt Bluffs will be the
highlight of your trip - see the crater up close and personal.   Thank you for your visit to
our Mt. St. Helens Visitor Travel Guide and Vacation Planner.

About Us:  This online Mount St. Helens Visitor Guide was originally created by Candy Richey, an
accomplished newspaper owner who started and ran the local Valley Bugler until 2007 when she
sold it and retired.   I took over management of the site for Candy this year and hope to build on her
great tradition of providing an information resource for our visitors while helping promote local
businesses.   I've been hiking, fishing, hunting, camping, photographing, 4-wheeling,
snowmobiling, and otherwise enjoying the Mount St. Helens area since long before the eruption in
1980.  I've been involved in Mt. St. Helens tourism for the past 16 years.  I hope you enjoy the site.  I
welcome your input.
