Mount Rainier is Washington's highest point. This 14,411 foot volcano is considered active, and looms over Seattle just 55 miles away, the same distance between Chicago and the Zion Nuclear Plant.
The locals here are not too concerned. Geologists say the volcano erupts just once every 1000 years, and it has not had a major eruption since, well, about 1000 years ago.
