Vulkan Mount Rainier
Nach vielen Einschätzungen der gefährlichste Vulkan der USA: ein vergletscherter Stratovulkan in Sichtweite von Seattle und Tacoma. Die Hauptgefahr ist nicht Lava, sondern Lahare; frühere Schlammströme erreichten Gebiete, in denen heute Zehntausende Menschen leben, und die Täler darunter verfügen über Lahar-Sirenen und Evakuierungsrouten.
