Mount Rainier is a large active stratovolcano in the Cascade Range. The Cascades are part of the Pacific Ocean’s Ring of Fire. All of the eruptions in the contiguous United States over the last 200 years have been from Cascade volcanoes, including Mount St. Helens in 1980.

I took these photos from the airplane window, flying over Washington State and seeing Mount Rainier.
