Mount Rainier is the highest volcanic peak in the Cascades, a mountain range that stretches from British Columbia in Canada to northern California. It was formed by many years of volcanic activity.
Paradise : is world-famous for its glorious views and wildflower meadows.
Trail of the Shadows
Space Needle : is a 605 foot tower and has the best view in town.
On May 18, 1980, the long-dormant Mount St. Helens erupted. Shaken by an earthquake measuring 5.1 on the Richter scale, the north face of the mountain collapsed in a massive avalanche of rock debris. The eruption lasted nine hours. Within the monument's bounds, the environment is left to respone naturally to the disturbance.
