A few weeks ago Jessica and I woke up early and headed south to Mt St Helens with a 10 mile trail in our sights. She promptly fell asleep in the car as I drove south. We knew that the skies were cloudy and the forecast didn’t look that great but we were hoping that the skies were clear. They didn’t.

We drove through the clouds to visitors center and got a few photos through breaks in the fog. When we reached the visitors center we parked the car and walked over to the park map. We looked into the distance and saw a herd of elk – nobody was around for miles so we spent 10 minutes watching them and listening to them call back and forth to each other. It was pretty damn cool – the pictures really don’t it justice because they were a good quarter mile away and the camera had problems picking up the light.
Jessica recorded a few videos which you can see below. Make sure you turn the volume up so you can hear them calling.
Hopefully, when we return the clouds will be gone and I’ll actually be able to see the mountain. If you want to check out the rest of the pictures you can find them in the gallery.
