The devastating eruption of Mount St. Helens in 1980 was the worst and deadliest volcanic eruption the United States has ever experienced. This catastrophic volcanic eruption lasted a mere 9 hours. However, in that short time it destroyed hundreds of square miles of forest, spewed 540 million tons of volcanic ash covering an area of 22,000 square miles, and killed 57 people. Mount St. Helens was reduced by a full 1,300 feet. The once symmetric cone mountain now had a massive gaping horseshoe caldera at it's center, and the surrounding area had become a barren wasteland.
