  • Mount St. Helens visitor centers still cut off by landslide on road 2007-Mar-29 14:04 from The Seattle Times

    VANCOUVER, Wash. — A landslide that has cut off access to two Mount St. Helens visitor centers and a few homes won't be cleared until the end of this week at the earliest, the state Department of Transportation said Wednesday.

    "We're hoping to start repairs within the next few days," spokeswoman Alissa Bateman said.

    The landslide, measuring about 30 feet wide and 230 feet long, fell on Spirit Lake Memorial Highway on Monday morning, down a steep slope on a sharp bend in the road.
