Dark Divide Roadless Area
In this area of rock outcroppings and alpine vegetation, you can enjoy panoramic views of snow-capped mountains in four directions.

Lava Tubes, Caves, and Casts
Centuries-old eruptions of pumice and lava from Mount St. Helens created numerous geologic attractions on its south flank. Lava tubes and caves, formed in the cooling lava, range from thousands of feet in length to small bubble like chambers.

Mount Saint Helens
At 8:32 Sunday morning, May 18, 1980, Mount St. Helens erupted. The north face of this tall symmetrical mountain collapsed in a massive rock debris avalanche.

Silver Star
Silver Star Mountain, at 4,390 feet, is the focus of the scenic, high-elevation ridgetop. Repeated wildfires cleared timber from the area now covered with meadows, berry fields, and, in the spring, a spectacular wildflower display.
