Lassen Peak photographed from the Devastated Area about 4 hours before the explosive eruption of May 22, 1915.

The panorama shows Cimarron River-bed operations in a portion of the Cushing Oil Field on December 2, 1915. The view is looking to the southwest from a river overlook located in Creek County, Oklahoma. The panorama was constructed from two photographs taken by A.E. Fath

One of the most well-known photographs by George R. Lawrence, taken May 28, 1906, about 6 weeks after the Great San Francisco earthquake which occurred on April 18. The 160-degree panorama was taken from a camera suspended from a kite 2,000 feet in the air. The view looks up Market Street with the waterfront and Union Ferry Building in the foreground.

Researchers map the bottom of Castle Lake, near Mount St. Helens. For three days, researchers ran a small boat over the lake surface equipped with an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP). The ADCP bounces an acoustic wave off the bottom that is reflected back to a mobile receiver in the boat.

Mount Adams elevation is 3,745 m (12, 286 ft). Mount St. Helens was the smallest of five major volcanic peaks in Washington State.

Boulder Creek leading from Mount Baker, Washington is a hydrology monitoring site where water is collected and measured for chemicals that may signal volcanic unrest.
