Video Description
Amateur archeologists set out to uncover new details about what happened on Mount St. Helens on May 18, 1980. Can they find the rumored "bootlegger caves" of Harry Truman, the innkeeper of Spirit Lake Lodge? What stories do the rusted relics found hiding in the ash still have to tell? Scott Kemery and his group of volunteers search the rugged post-eruption volcanic landscape in a quest for answers.
