Mount St. Helens
This is an amazing place.  If you need evidence of just how powerful nature is this is the spot.  It's a popular hike.  I've heard it is the second most climbed mountain in the world (Mt Fuji is #1).

Before May 18, 1980 Mount St. Helens was 1000' higher than were I'm standing in this picture.

The devastation stretches as far as the eye can see.
