Majestic view of Mount Rainier
Mount Rainier is the crown jewel of its namesake national park, designated March 2, 1899, by US President William McKinley. It was just the fifth national park in the United States. Beyond the mountain, the 369-square-mile park also includes valleys, waterfalls, old-growth forests, and pristine alpine meadows famous for summer wildflowers.
