It is in the AFD for the NW. In the back of the airport facility directory are special procedures, direction you must circle (CW or CCW), altitude, terrain clearance and freq to monitor. Washington state Gov, aeronautics division states, like Andy said, states 122.75 is required to be monitored to fly around Mt. St. Helen. There's scientific activity and yes even volcanic action involved. Don't forget to check the TFR's and NOTAM's.
