Mt St Helen's Hike
The hike is relatively challenging, although it does not require specialized climbing skills. The first 2-2.5 miles of the trailhead well-known as the Climbers’ Bivouac will let you climb nearly 1000. All through, your journey, you will come across the scenic beauty of forestry and exposed meadows which surround the mountain range. If you like to hike beyond Loowit Trail, you will require a permit as a climber from the authorities. This area is the point where the trackarises toward Monitor Ridge, which makes it more difficult for hikers because in many places the rise is vertical. The rocks are dusty and covered with a combination of rock along with volcanic ash which may even damage the skin. This is why, it is recommended to carry garden gloves or layers like jackets too.
In the last part of the track, you will have to hike 1000 feet vertically through ash surrounded by small rocks. Always make sure to use long trousers for your well-being. The scenic beauty of the top comprises the large crater resembling a dome that is escalating rapidly in size every year. Here you will get astonished to view the picturesque Mount Adams, Mount Rainer, and Mount Hoodabove the blue-green surging hills neighboring them.
