This is as clear as it got on a recent (June 2007) trip up Mt. St. Helens. Followed the standard route. Was in the area for 3 days and never saw the mountain. Lots of freezing rain and clouds, however. I guess that's not unusual for the Cascades in June. Neat experience, though, since we were able to glissade about 3,000' worth of the descent, a couple of times getting some adrenaline producing altitude (especially on the last 500 footer coming down to the flats before the trees)!
