Nếp có đi đến St. Helens National Park lần nào chưa? VL đến tổng cộng 3 lần. Lần đầu tiên vào năm 95 thì phải. Lúc đó nó còn rất hoang sơ, cây cối thưa thớt.

Lần thứ nhì là vào năm 98, so với 3 năm trước thì gần như nhận không ra, rất nhiều cây cối và cỏ dại mọc.

Lần thứ ba là năm 99, hôm đó trời mưa tầm tã, đến nơi chỉ có tắm mưa, ăn trưa rồi về :dance1: :dance1:

Nếp chưa lên núi St. Helens, chỉ đến khu Ape Cape gần chân núi thôi, cũng cách đây mấy năm rồi. Khu vực quanh núi St. Helens trống và thoán hơn ở Mt. Rainier nhiều.
