Mount St. Helens Lava Dome

Schematic, click to enlarge [Schematic,22K,GIF]
Dome Growth 1980-83 - Ground Profile -- Taken from tracings of photographs from fixed photo station on crater floor, approximately 1 kilometer north of center of dome. Products of each extrusive episode include talus that accumulated during that episode. Scale varies owing to perspective view; true east-west basal diameter of dome in December 1983 was about 830 meters.
