USGS Volcano Hazards Program Volcano Update
CVO update page and observatory web site
Activity Update: All volcanoes in the Cascade Range of Oregon and Washington are at normal levels of background seismicity. These include Mount Baker, Glacier Peak, Mount Rainier, Mount St. Helens, and Mount Adams in Washington State; and Mount Hood, Mount Jefferson, Three Sisters, Newberry Volcano, and Crater Lake, in Oregon.
Recent Observations: Seismicity in the Cascade Range remains at background levels. Field crews worked at Mount St. Helens to upgrade monitoring sites and perform routine annual maintenance and site cleanup. Other crews sampled thermal springs, surveyed river channels, and acquired aerial imagery.
The U.S. Geological Survey Cascades Volcano Observatory and the University of Washington continue to monitor the Washington and Oregon volcanoes closely and will issue additional updates and changes in alert level as warranted.
For other inquiries please call 360 993-8973.
