Description
In an open alpine expanse, layered with ashfall, the Butte Camp Trail #238A meets the round-the-mountain Loowit Trail #216. Just to the east is the lava flow that provides footing for the now little-used southern ascent of Mount Saint Helens. To the northwest, the Loowit Trail crosses numerous gullies as it heads towards the Sheep Canyon Crossing.
