St. Helens: Out of the Ash (2005) | Documentary | KSPS PBS

It was the "perfect mountain", a shapely peak dubbed "The Fuji of the West". 9,677 feet of snow-capped grandeur in the heart of the Cascade Range. On May 18, 1980 Mt. St. Helens captured the attention of the world with a volcanic display unequaled in modern times. This is the story of the cataclysmic events of that day, and the miraculous resiliency of Nature as life returns out of the ash.

Produced in 2005.
