With an elevation of 14,411 feet and containing 26 major glaciers Mt Rainier is the highest peak in Washington State. Actually a stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcano Arc it is considered one of the most dangerous volcanos in the world. Its last volcanic activity was recoreded between 1820 and 1854, but other eruptions were reported but not confirmed througout the rest of the 1800's. Known as Mt. Tacoma by the native tribes it was named Mt Rainier by Captain George Vancouver in May of 1792 in honor of his friend Rear Admiral Peter Rainier. Debate over the name of the mountain continued until the mid 1920's even though it was officially named Mt. Rainier in 1890.

definition: sea stack

A stack is a geological landform consisting of a steep and often vertical column or columns of rock in the sea near a coast, isolated by erosion.   Stacks are formed through processes of coastal geomorphology, which are entirely natural.   Time, wind and water are the only factors involved in the formation of a stack.  They are formed when part of a headland is eroded by hydraulic action, which is the force of the sea or water crashing against the rock.   The force of the water weakens cracks in the headland, causing them to later collapse, forming free standing stacks and even a small island.   Without the constant presence of water, stacks also form when a natural arch collapses under gravity, due to a sub-aerial processes like wind erosion.

Forgive me
