I watched Mt. Saint Helen’s erupt through a telescope when I was 4 years old with my dad somewhere in East Olympia. We also (unknowingly) rented a house (from a bank) that had belonged to a young family who died on the mountain. We moved across the country when I was 6, but I have always been strangely fascinated by the mountain and now, 46 years later, went to Johnston Ridge for the first time this summer. Thank you for this great video.
That's insane to see how the landscape changed from before and after the explosion within two decades. Makes me wonder if it actually takes millones of years for landscapes to form.
From seeing the recovery of St. Helens, I can say safely that the recovery is much faster than I thought. In about 40 years, the plant life around the mountain has recovered significantly. I would confidently say that in 300 years, the trees will cover most of the pumice plains, and the lower areas of the mountain itself. It will not seem barren like it does now. The crater may not recover for a long time, but i am open to surprises. :)
@@qpwodkgh2010 so should have the Germans in the 1930s trusted their scientists when they stated that the Jews were of an inferior race because eugenics proves it? Should the public have trusted the scientists who created nuclear weapons as a means of self defense? Should the folks in the 80s have trusted the scientists who predicted that we would have an ice age in the early 2000s? Should the public trusted the scientists who were paid by tobacco companies to say that cigarettes did not cause cancer? There's two type of scientists I don't trust.

That's what I find sad of you.
Well, I grew up in Oregon (and took classes in environmental management - long ago) and unfortunately clear cutting is common (easier then the older version of selecting certain trees, and cost effecient). We depend on WOOD, Paper and other products made from trees. (although now hopefully some is recycled!) Earlier in America ENTIRE species were WIPED out from the demand on natural forest. (certain types of Chestnut trees, Oaks and Maples many others) Later laws created a better balance. There are many other species that are destoyed esp Tropical forest (and each area has specific flora and fauna all destroyed as the creatures depend on the plant life) and so once gone gone forever. People around the world that want products from these places aid in their destruction (and attempts at "cattle farming" proved a disaster - the soil was thin and nothing else would grow on it) (roots of these trees shallow).
If you watch, you can see the replanted trees grow after the clear cutting. Weyerhaeuser replants the clear cut. Not saying they’re perfect, but logging today is done more sustainably today (speaking in the US) than decades past.
Logging in Oregon got shut down completely. There is no longer any balance it completely swung from one extreme to the other. Right and wrong should be exchanged for tug and pull. And for pull not to show up to meet tug any longer life becomes chaotic and imbalanced. We could of done a much better job in Oregon; now all our forests are overrun and matchbox prone and no longer any roads created and maintained to slow fires down when they start. The list goes on. It's not all rainbows when you end logging. It's not all rainbows when you let logging companies go willy Billy. People want to complain about the trees and animal displacement. What about when you don't use Logs? Resin compounds, plastics, petroleums, metals. How can logging make people sad when it can regrow while other methods don't regrow and cause equal if not more damage? It seems like a large percentage of the people arguing about logging don't have the slightest clue about the environment and they can claim they are siding with nature and science but their ignorance and lack of research shows in bright colors. Completely going off emotion (far too many people with more influence / louder opinions that have even less wherewithal than I) Not directing to the original commenter just something I felt like sharing here.
@@coleman318 My Father was a forester for Weyerhauser in the 1950's and 1960's, an old-school Democrat. I believe he would agree with most of what you said.
You think if Blueseaview22 was correct he would actually say something logical that we could somehow talk about. Not just vomit his shadow in massive projection through comments on TH-cam. Luckily when people get angry and go to insult another person they usually point out their insecurities and flaws and label that other person as the very thing they are.
I agree that it should be banned in certain areas (was active in Oregon for ages - but the Timber Industry usually wins out because of the DEMAND by the "collective".) We all use trees. It happens to our American Forest all over (many from early America extinct!!! (some from imports that carried insects not native to our flora and went extinct - some cutting every last tree down) I recall the Redwood Forest in CA - and hiking along - nice stand of the oldest living thing on Earth, walk a tad beyond and these giant trees were stumps!!! (used for HOUSING!) Big backlash to at least preserve a small tad! We all are involved (you know YOUR house, YOUR paper products so on - the wood and by products - paper comes from trees. NOT due to activism - many are grown on land for that purpose - tree harvesting from crops like any other crop). Lived in S Oregon and one can see the squares from this clear cutting. Not as horrific but better then in the past (early America) when the ENTIRE forest was removed (along with other flora and fauna that depended on these trees) (Ditto for the Tropical forest around the world)
You guys didn't care when the volcano did it. It's actually healthy to do this and keeps it all from burning down to nothing. It allows undergrowth to see the sun to ensure a strong future for future trees. This is why Superblooms happen. Nature has a backup plan for everything we can throw at it and that it throws at itself. If you can't see the recovery after destruction after the volcano and how resilient it is then, I can't help you. There is more to a forest's sustainability than how it looks.
How do you feel about the use of seeding (with non-native / invasive plants) to help stop erosion right afterwards? Is that still impacting the forestation and the wildlife that's returned to the area?
Nighmare for the natural balance and eco system. Nature knows how to restart and has been doing so sucessfully long before human kind. Volcanoes enrich the soil as well.
My grandfather worked for Weyerhaeuser for 42 years. In a location near Pe Ell there was a plot of land that the company owned and deemed Stockholder’s Park. It was 300+ year old Old Growth forest.
I was at school in London when St. Helen's erupted and we got sent home at midday as the sky was black. I walked home holding my 6 year old sisters hand she didn't understand and I had trouble explaining it to her. I was 8.
And now many of those tree farms are ready to re-harvest, saving pristine forest. Here's a question for the habitually unproductive. Since the green crowd and the lockdown crowd are one in the same. How many trees were cut down to make useless paper masks? And how many of those masks are now litter?
@@coveredinmoss Much paper is from recyling. Most of the mask were paper AND having studied plastics in the arts the toxins to produce plastic (made from OIL btw) and refuse is horrific. (ocean ships dump their refuse at sea, plastics then eaten by sea life, turtles others and choke to death. It takes hundreds of years to break down (although some now are made to disinegrate faster)
@@steveadams7870 I studied this area at S. Oregon when in college (environmental management where the forest ferns and wildlife were key issues, along with water systems). First these "farms" are staggered (on average 9-10 years before harvest). When buying paper products CHECK the label - "made from recycled paper"!!! Otherwise many species of beautiful trees are destroyed for what (or yeah since the computer who needs it???) (aspen eucalyptus, maples, birch, aspen, and oaks) Beautiful areas along CA Coast Eucalyptus - most now extinct! Better MHO then clear cutting trees hundreds of years old! Christmas trees are grown in this manner (better then cutting down our pine forest or what's left of them) There is only a minute amount of the once vast range of Redwood forest (and other trees) in N CA - thousands of years old (oldest living thing on earth now). Clear cut to almost extinction. (small amount saved to to "outcries". All to make HOUSES!!! That was long before the "green crowd" (what ever that means).
Great video presentation. Would like to see a video of the mountain itself and the rebuilding of the crater again. Been watching it from Mt Calvary Catholic Cemetery since 2008. It's definitely filling in more and more.
To introduce a proper understanding of scale and time -1,000 years from now, barring another major eruption that kills everything, that will be some of the most fertile land in the area.
No "theory" and mostly in swamp, bog areas BUT - OVER hundreds of millions of years!!! (longest of any rock formation). (I had to take Geology and thought UGH but turns out to be very interesting - from water systems, rocks - mountains and other envoronments) (Coal can be made from any plant life) and a process at that (where PEAT bogs come from - peat is a step further down from coal). IT is considered a "non renewable resource" because it takes multi millions of years to produce. Luckily few nations use coal (overseas nations still do) Charcoal is a different matter.
I was there at the eruption. It was scary. I was at the Cle Elm Ranger Station when it happened. At 8:30a.m. the call came out to clear the park.You could not see 6 feet in front. It had the blast ratio of 5 Hiroshima.
the saddest part of the timelaps was that human deforestation in the sorrounding areas was way faster than natural reforestation in the "moon scape" area
Not how it happened at all! Two people died and WERE miles from St. Helens. But not VAPORIZED at all (easy to research but I was in S. Oregon, Sisters in WA at the time) And don't forget David A.

4,000 trees were planted not long after she erupted. It's amazing to see what she now looks like today 42 years later as of May 18, 2022
I wish nature would get way more credit for healing itself than what any people could plant.
At least Mount St Helens helped out the logging company by cutting down all the trees for them.
Dang you see where humans cleared tons of trees. We wiped out tons of forest
Everyone uses trees and paper - try to buy "recycled" (studied this decades ago at Sourthern Oregon - environmental mangement) At least now "tree farms" (many species of trees MANY went extinct in early America due to this callousness!)
@@sazure2 here in Oklahoma there used to be wild persimmon & wild PawPaw trees all over and now you rarely see them. The United States used to have wild chestnut trees all across the country and we nearly wiped them out. I learned that about the chestnuts in a deer management study
I know right
Responsible forest management in order for it to be successful. Too often it is not done responsibly and that's the problem.
All i saw was continuous logging not giving the area enough time to regenerate
In our backyard natures greatest fury demonstrates to us how minisquile nature is compared to the clear cutting done since the eruption. I hope nature can recover from that... with out killing us.
pretty amazing...
So impressiv the naturs power.
The clear cutting is crazy
Cool
Thought it was a mountain in space
Watching clear cuts is watching forest rape.
did you see the deforesting time lap? all those brown spots. thats are oxygen
