Mount St. Helens VolcanoCams

This is a static, near real-time image of Mount St. Helens, taken from the Johnston Ridge Observatory. The Observatory and VolcanoCam are located at an elevation of approximately 4,500 feet, about five miles from the volcano. You are looking approximately south-southeast across the North Fork Toutle River Valley. The VolcanoCam image automatically updates approximately every five minutes.

We have a dynamic version of this web page also available. It uses a Java applet to automatically refresh the image itself, instead of the entire web page as done here.
