On May 18, 1980, Mount St. Helens in Skamania County, Washington, exploded in what is seen by many as the most disastrous volcanic eruption in the history of the United States.
On the forty-first anniversary of the disaster which killed 57 people, caused over $1 billion in damage (equivalent to over $3 billion today), and killed thousands of animals, we are able to understand the colossal terror caused by the eruption because of photographer Robert Landsburg.
