More than 2,000 years ago, hot lava poured down the southern side of Mt. St. Helens.  As the boiling lava decanted and the surface cooled, it created a crust allowing the lava beneath to be insulated thereby letting it travel downwards the Valley of Lewis River. North America’s third longest lava tube was created as a result as the flowing lava pulsed for months through the tube.
