Main description and photos

 In 1994, a new road was completed into the west side of the National Monument. I biked up there.

My other thought provoking photos: by region, by subject, contact.

Big new bridge on road into west side of National Monument.

Earthquakes, volcanoes, storms:  Some people say these are signs of the impending end of the world.  I say the opposite.  These are signs that the world is still being created.  The world is never finished.

Some say Mt. Baker, near Bellingham, is soon to erupt.  In 1976, or so, there was increased steam activity, but since then nothing unusual.  In geological time, "soon" could mean some time in the next thousand years.


Views of the devastation, as seen from the west side as I biked there in 1994.
