Places to Go and Things to Know: Washington

Mount Ranier, (or Rainier) is the highest peak in the Cascade Mountain Range and the tallest mountain in the contiguous United States. Mount Rainier is located approximately 50 miles southeast of the city of Seattle and is known as a stratovolcano: a cone-shaped volcanic mountain. Glaciers on the mountain are consistently modified by the geothermal heat from the volcano, which is not expected to erupt anytime in the near future. However, also in the Cascade Mountains nearby is Mount Saint Helens, which did indeed erupt in 1980 and caused major devastation. Mount Saint Helens and Mount Rainer are just two of many volcanos that make up Pacific Ring of Fire.

For more information on the area, visit Mount Rainier National Park at the National Park Service's Web site.
