Mount Rainier /reÉªËnÉªÉr/ is a city in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States. The population was 8,080 at the 2010 census. Bordering Washington, D.C. , Mount Rainier got its start as a streetcar suburb. (See Streetcars in Washington, D.C. ) According to local tradition, surveyors from the Pacific Northwest named the town, giving the streets names such as  Shasta  and  Cascade .
Mount Rainier is the highest volcanic peak in the Cascades, a mountain range that stretches from Mount Garibaldi in British Columbia to Lassen Peak in Northern California. Mount Rainier was formed not in one great cataclysm, but by many years of volcanic activity. It is a composite volcano (or stratovolcano) made from sluggish, intermittent lava flows and explosive eruptions of ash and rock. Volcanoes have been erupting in this region for at least 40 million years.
