The dome forming of Mt.St.helens was the best webcam footage i've ever seen, you could see hundreds of feet tall material being pushed straight up in the air and collapse back down.
Oh my goodness, what a treat!! An extended video from GeoHub, thanks! Having lived in WA for 40 years, literally 2/3 of my time on this Earth, I absolutely love this! (In Missouri now, however, but there's great geology here, too!) LOL, at 22:18 with the guy looking up.... Nick Zentner, a geology prof at Central Washington University (he's got a great channel on TH-cam!) showed this image once and said "There's a hippie, for scale."
It's awesome being a Washingtonian! Living ~80 miles north of Mt. St. Helens, I heard the THUD of the eruption - Blessed that the ash all blew to the east!! Thank you for this great presentation & Cheers from Seattle!
Yeah its easily the most underrated wilderness area in all of WA. You've got mountains, rivers, even some remaining old growth, and various remote vistas that look like a fantasy setting. North Cascades National Park and Mt. Baker are also surprisingly super underrated as well, though Glacier Peak still takes the cake in that regard.
Love me some GPdub. Not only is it super remote (by washington standards) so very few people, but tons of craggy peaks and deep glacial valleys flanked by sprawling alpine ridgelines with great views of the north cascades and out east towards Lake Chelan, not to mention gp herself
Pretty Good video. just one note that every that covers Glacier Peak seems to blank on , GP itself is in fact perched on top of big ridgeline and the probable reason for its glaciers is the straits of Juan de Fuca point like a finger right it and that funnels a river of weather across that section of mountians.
I did a double take after seeing the video length, well done GeologyHub! Keep it up! I was wondering when you were going to post the long awaited extended video ever since you mentioned it in a video few months back!
SIR! Yes, monthly or bi-monthly videos like this would be very welcome! And seriously, as a former local (Bellingham, WA), it is Juan de Fuca (FEW-kah) Plate. Serious question...why is it called Osceola Lahar? Osceola was a Seminole chief, and was, as far as I know, he was not anywhere near the West Coast. Laddie, I LOVE how THOROUH you are! I had NEVER heard of West Crater until this episode! BRAVO!!
Yay! Something interesting to watch while I stay out of the kitchen so as not to micromanage my husband making Thanksgiving dinner for the first time. Also I love all of your posts!
I always find your videos super interesting and, as I'm interested but not an expert in the subjects of geology or vulcanism as you are, I feel that you explain these aspects of global science very well to someone like me, a layperson. Many thanks.
Great video!!! I enjoyed every 37 minutes of it. I have spent most of my life around the Cascades of Oregon and Washington. I never knew about West Crater and Indian Heaven I need to check it out
We had a discussion about volcanoes on Christmas because we're in Washington. So I had to look up this vid. Thanks for doing this. Now I can send it to them.
Thanks for the long video. This video makes me want to move to the pacific northwest! It is SO damn beautiful! Such a treat to learn about such beautiful volcanoes!
I was stationed a Fairchild AFB, Spokane, WA when Mt St. Helens blew up. We were doing the opening airshow and to the west it was pitch black. We got on the ground and by 11am the airshow/open house was canceled. We were having a party for the squadron that afternoon and a 2pm it was pitch black and "snowing" ash. Wiped out the base for 4 months.
The map of St. Helens' ashfall is deceptive. Although that may show the fall from the initial eruption, in the following months subsequent eruptions covered a much larger area. Portland Oregon got hit at least twice which isn't indicated on the map. And I was living in the LA California area at the time and we had trace amounts fall there, I still have it in a jar somewhere.
Baker is shifting due to the rotation of the plate up there. Side note for those not from Washington, Glacier Peak is extremely remote. I think the closest trailhead is 15 miles away from its summit. That’s a 15 mile hike on some of the worst terrain possible with extreme elevation gains. It typically takes several days to get there which makes studying this volcano extremely difficult. When looking at Glacier Peak from the ground, it’s very difficult to pick it out from its surrounding landscape.
this was fascinating and easy to follow- though i did pause a lot to read your captions here and there. if my geology professor had taught like you do, i would have gone much further on this path than i did. thank you for the video!
i live in skagit right abt a hour away from mt baker. i think it is dope i live in a area where the lava would run and we would all die. dope asf i grew up here and one day it could all just be gone
This is awesome! I love the volcanoes of my state. I'm dreaming of backpacking out to Dakobed this summer and I also need to visit Indian Heaven sometime
Pew(like the seat)-all-up. I was not aware of the history of the complex that is now represented by Mt. Baker. I had no idea we had an active VEI 7 producer in Washington.
My latest question is this: Which major city (minimum population of 500,000), anywhere on earth, is the most likely to be hit by a VEI 5 or higher volcanic eruption?
@r.awilliams9815 It's the obvious answer, but somehow, I suspect that it won't be the correct answer. My guess is that it's going to be somewhere in Asia.
@@r.awilliams9815vesuvius doing a VEI 5? And campi flegrei Is a joke, Italy Is basically a bunch of scared sheeple Who believe anything the gov tells them.
@AngryGecko1010 It either looks promising or it looks scary. Your perspective probably depends on proximity to the three main vents. I suspect that it has the potential to do something terrible, but the odds are low based on its behaviour over the last forty years.
I,m Canadian,I went on mont Baker i start by Vancouver to Oregon,Oregon is out of this world the ,the see,nature and the peoples they are so nice a good trip
Your ash map of St Helens is incorect. Ash spread further northwest as there was at least a 1\4 inch in metchosin and we were sweeping it up here in Langford(south Vancouver Island), which means a decent chunk is missing.
Sometime in the next 300 years, when the Cascadia Subduction Zone slips, within a year, a volcano in the Cascade Zone will light off. I would put my money on the Three Sisters and/or Mount Hood.
@helezhelm Do some digging about eruptions in the Cascades range and subduction zone slips. I found at least two correlations just in the past 3k years.
@The_Dudester Again, lack of data to support the correlation of fault based EQs related with volcanism activity. We have seen many examples where big fault quakes do not cause volcanoes to suddenly wake up. For example, Cascadia Quake in 1700 didn't cause any volcanoes to go wild.
Here's your reminder that correlation does not equal causation. That's a nice hypothesis and all, if you restate it in the format of a hypothesis, but where's your facts to back it up?
23:23 Puyallup is pronounced Pew-al-up. Which is probably Washington State’s biggest shibboleth, since it hosts the State Fair, but is otherwise just a suburb of Tacoma, so locals can pronounce it and everyone else stumbles badly.
🤫don’t tell outsiders. How are we supposed to quickly identify tourists if they don’t mispronounce most of our place names? Regional linguistic fencing is there for a reason. 😉
@@lightreign8021 Hearing how people from out of state attempt to pronounce Puyallup is one of my favorite things on this platform. It is always entertaining.
Yes, I came here to say that and see if anyone else caught that. It’s astonishingly common for people to think Mt Shuksan is Mt Baker. Probably because when you go to the Mt Baker Ski Area, you’re looking straight at Shuksan and only see Baker when you’re at the top of the chairlifts on a clear day.
What is the longest mt Adam's has gone without an eruption? If it averages one every 7-800 years. And the most recent being in 930 ce. I know technically we aren't overdue. But im curious the longest its gone between eruptions.
Many people are not aware that we have a lot more active volcanoes that are underwater as well as on dry Earth. Thank you so much for this information we appreciate you and watch you all the time
My favorite fur baby was an orange kitty. I just lost her little one, a fluffy brown tabby, two days ago, so am bummed. But I got to enjoy 18 years with Cleo (orange) and 17 years with Gypsy (brown) so I truly do feel blessed for that! Show them love every chance you get, they are such an amazing family member if you do!
This was/is a very good video! You tend to hear about the most well known volcanoes, and they will also come up in books, but there were two I'd never encountered before; Indian Heaven and West Crater. I was also surprised to see them designated as low threat volcanoes, but then, I realised that neither had large populations close by. I'm also making my way through the Oregon video, and I'm hoping there'll be one about California, too! All in all theseare a rare treat, and I'm loving them!
I live on an island in Puget Sound and Mt. Baker definitely has gas and steam rising off every now and then. I have a picture I took a couple of years ago. The picture is not real impressive but the gas and steam plume is certainly noticeable. If Rainier were to go like St. Helens and in the same direction I would not want to be anywhere near Tacoma. Just saying.
None of the volcanoes pose the level of threat that the Cascadia Subduction Zone does. If a major event happened n that fault line, it could potentially wipe out everything west of I-5 from the upper northern part of Vancouver Island down to north California.
So when volcano's pass gas the planet is just farting! Also when they are not active they are technically constipated! We need to help the planet to be more active and make them erupt more often so the earth can feel better! So how do we make a laxative to make these old volcano's erupt again! Maybe we can drill a hole down the cone and put some kind of sonic devices down them it would be very cool and fun to see if we could make them all erupt all at once!
Hell yes! A 30 minute video about volcanoes! All done by geology hub!
The dome forming of Mt.St.helens was the best webcam footage i've ever seen, you could see hundreds of feet tall material being pushed straight up in the air and collapse back down.

I like Nick, he's cool.
Happy to see this, I'm from BC and have spent a lot of time in Washington so it's awesome to see the history of these peaks
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS!
Perfect video to teach & share more information about our volcanos! Not single video covers all 7 of them but yours!

recently moved to WA and I absolutely love the Glacier Peak wilderness area. Its my favorite, not sure why.
Mine too! There is lots to explore…!

Yes, it gets a ton of precipitation in that region. Also, Glacier Peak is over 10,000 ft high, so it’s plenty tall to have lots of glaciers up there.
Thank you. Very interesting to see this longer compilation. Your shorter daily videos are perfectly fine, of course, this is just an extra treat. 😀.
Long-form video! Thanks so much, Geology Hub!

Same to you!
Thank you for the video, I hiked the PCT years ago and this video should be mandatory for PCT hikers
So cool to learn you live here in WA too! Our geology is absolutely insane!
Huh.. 🤨
This is the earliest I've ever been to a GeoHub video!😅😇
Great stuff as always Tim!
Cheers from (nonvolcanic) southern Sweden 🇸🇪😄🙏

Pew(like the seat)-all-up.
I was not aware of the history of the complex that is now represented by Mt. Baker. I had no idea we had an active VEI 7 producer in Washington.
I grew up in one of Mt. Rainier's lahar zones, which my science teacher dad enjoyed telling me about...
Awesome video!
My latest question is this: Which major city (minimum population of 500,000), anywhere on earth, is the most likely to be hit by a VEI 5 or higher volcanic eruption?
Oooh, I'll play! My guess is Naples.

I live in South Eastern Washington and where the roads have forced carving into hillsides you can see the many layers of sediment and ash.
Could you do a video on the volcano in Mexico that appeared in 1943 and was only around for a few years?
I love longer videos! Happy Thanksgiving.
Your ash map of St Helens is incorect. Ash spread further northwest as there was at least a 1\4 inch in metchosin and we were sweeping it up here in Langford(south Vancouver Island), which means a decent chunk is missing.
Believe it or not in Indonesian, the word Lahar does not mean a volcanic mudflow, but lava.
Holy moly, 40-min video...
Fer realz! Awesome stuff! You are Amazing, Mr @Geologyhub, sir!
Yes. It s cool because there is enough to talk about
Great vid.
You mispictured Mt Adams at 7:08, that pic is of Mt Rainer.
Happy Thanksgiving
Hello from South Hill. 🙂
Loved the long format video!!
Sometime in the next 300 years, when the Cascadia Subduction Zone slips, within a year, a volcano in the Cascade Zone will light off. I would put my money on the Three Sisters and/or Mount Hood.
I'm betting Rainier.
I doubt it, fault slips/big EQs typically don't cause volcanoes to go active. Volcanoes are unpredictable and it has its own unique system.
@helezhelm Do some digging about eruptions in the Cascades range and subduction zone slips. I found at least two correlations just in the past 3k years.
