America's Great Outdoors
Soaring 14,410 feet into the sky, Mount Rainier is the highest peak in the Cascade Range. It dominates the landscape, inspires our imagination, and challenges our senses. This active ice covered volcano is a symbol of the dramatic forces that shape our world. From its old growth forests and subalpine meadows to its glacier-clad peak, Mount Rainier offers many opportunities to explore its natural beauty.Mount Rainier is also rich in cultural history. For thousands of years, tribal groups have gathered here. Designated a national park in 1899, many areas contribute to its National Historic Landmark District status.Photo: William Lee - National Park Service
