<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collecting Nut, post: 8629199, member: 74863&quot;]Well it sort of is. I was fishing with my friends on the lake the Sunday she erupted, May 18, 1980. As I can’t wear a mask or even pull my shirt over my nose, I coughed for 6 months afterwards. And the carburetor on my Ford Courier needed to be replaced. </p><p><br /></p><p>I didn’t even look at the date as it’s burned in my mind forever. Just a beautiful 1 ounce silver bar that was issued shortly (a few years) after the eruption. It’s a beautiful site to see, the destruction that occurred was devastating but could have been worse.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you ever get to that area, it’s worth it to go see this. They probably have a park and campground at the base of it now. After all, it’s been quiet for over 40 years. I still have some ash from its eruption.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1516253[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
