A look back at the catastrophic May 18, 1980, eruption of Mount St. Helens in Washington—the most devastating volcanic eruption in U.S. history—and the events leading up to it.
Godzilla Cave, an ice cave carved by Mount St. Helens, was discovered in 2013 by backcountry guide Jared Smith.
The massive ice hole near Mount St. Helens, Washington is called the Godzilla Hole. It's the entrance to a glacier cave system that was formed by the volcano's 1980 eruption.
Mount St. Helens remains at normal, background levels of activity. Since February 1, 2024, approximately 350 earthquakes have been located at Mount St. Helens by the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network.
