Driving back to Seattle, we decided to take a short trip to the
Mt. St. Helens Visitor Center, which was 5 miles from I-5. With just a little coaxing, B. agreed to stop by
Silver Lake to wa
lk around for a bit. We stumbled upon a cute
little hotel that caters to fishermen with an amazing view of the lake. As it was almos

t dark, we decided to stay the night and
drive to the Johnston Ridge Observatory the next day. Sadly, because I needed to do work on a project, we didn’t have time to go fishing in the morning.
Once we got to the top, we took a very short hike (3/4 mile) along a rather steep ridge to the observatory. We were only at 4,500 feet, but with no railings, the trail was a little dangerous. Still, the view was amazing.
