You must be at least 18 years old to get a credit card by yourself, but getting a credit card at that age won't be as simple as applying for the credit card and getting approved. While you can legally get a credit card as young as age 18, the law requires that you have your own steady source of income to qualify for a credit card. Unfortunately, a monthly allowance from your parents probably won't count. It's for your own good.
Mount St. Helens, famous for its explosive 1980 eruption, has long been the most active volcano in the Pacific Northwest. U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) scientists have documented the volcano's 300,000- year geologic history, including powerful explosions of ash, outpourings of lava, and huge landslides and volcanic mudflows.

Small eruptions from 1980 to 1986 built a lava dome. The lava dome can be seen here steaming within the crater.he first sign of activity at Mount St. Helens in the spring of 1980 was a series of small earthquakes that began on March 16. After hundreds of additional earthquakes, steam explosions on March 27 blasted a crater through the volcano's summit ice cap.
