Mt. St. Helens

After spending time in Portland with Bob and Shauna for Thanksgiving, Jenn and I decided to stop by Mt. St. Helens in order to walk off the turkey and large quantity of booze the night before. We took a trail around the visitor's center since driving up to one of the look out/ridge is now closed for Winter and roads are covered in snow. (But you can still climb Mt. St. Helens in the winter via snowshoes if you so desire.) I have talked Jenn into doing Mt. St. Helens in late Spring when the roads opens back up. Anyone else interested? It's only ~8500ft after Helen blew it's top in 1980. Depending on cardiovascular shape they say roundtrip time is 7hrs - 12 hrs.
