Since she blew her top in 1980, Mount St. Helens has been one of the world's most popular tourist attractions. It became even more so when it recently began to spew ash again. The mountain itself is quite visible from Portland, but the visitor's center is two and one-half hours away by vehicle. Once there, you can walk through a replica of the volcano, learn about the mountain's history and pick up directions to Johnson Ridge Observatory where you can peer into the crater. Admission: USD3 for adults; USD1 for children 15 years and under.
