Mount Rainier rises 14,410 feet above sea level and can be seen on
any given day by over three million people and from over 100 miles
away. It is America's fifth national park, established in 1899. The
mountain is an active but currently dormant volcano. With 25 named
glaciers, 50 smaller unnamed glaciers, and numerous perennial
snowfields, Mount Rainier boasts the largest glacier system in the
continental United States. In addition to the glacier zone, the
park has alpine and subalpine forest and subtropical rain forest.
Each zone has its own unique ecology of plants and animals. The
vistas of and from the mountain are some of the most spectacular in
all of the park system.
