I’m an east coaster. When I went to Seattle a few years ago, I recall realizing that what I thought was a strange-looking cloud was actually Rainier’s peak piercing the sky. It’s absolutely massive
Yes it is and gorgeous. I’ve lived here all my life. I never get tired of looking at the Mountain
Damn, I think I need to move then…
I mean Scandinavia is beautiful and all but Washington sounds f’n stunning…
@@conniebaker1958 agreed. I’ve climbed her and camped at her base several times. She’s enchanting and you don’t get tired of seeing her.
I'm from Denver so seeing a 14,000 foot tall mountain was normal for me. Seeing one single mountain that tall rising from a lower elevation completely changed my perspective of mountains. It's absolutely massive.
I believe from the peak of Mt.Hood in Oregon you can look north and see Mt.Rainer in Washington and look south and see Mt.Shasta in California,that is if the weather's clear.
Has someone who lived in Washington state for a few years, Mount Rainier is less of a mountain and more of a deity on the horizon. It's eye-wateringly big.
"The mountain is out today" is a very common phrase all over Washington
It's super symbolic for me. Lived here 28 years and I still cry and scream of joy when I see it. It's a reminder that life is really beautiful no matter how hard the things I'm going through. It's a symbol for me to keep going in my roughest times.
@@Thecatnamedkiwi ok
@@Thecatnamedkiwiwe all gain strength in something of nature 🥰
I've lived in Washington my entire life. Such a beautiful place
I think Netflix or NatGeo just needs to hire you to make a whole series on cool things like this all around the world. Great video!
i agree, get this guy a netflix approved cam🙌🏾
As jist I watched the video I tought the same. Ready for Netflix & c.
As long as he doesn't use childish slang like strat instead of the proper English word, Strategy. How lazy are we getting anyway?
@@seanmorgan1460 didnt ask.
@@seanmorgan1460 I’ll be sure to keep that in mind if I make it to the Netflix level- sounds like a worthwhile strat.
I live in olympia and this volcano towers above the horizon. It never escapes your view. She is beautiful but everyone gets this spiritual feeling from her. We gotta respect her. She knows she is known, but its up to her when she wants to be heard.
I believe it has eyes and watches over the humans, when things get too strange this monster will reset our ways. My mom's friend also believes something similar.
Same. I seen this mountain my whole life. I remember one day I was in lacey at my job around 5am and saw the sun hidden by the mountain casting it in darkness but giving it a halo of golden light. Was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. If the Titan Gaia was real then this mountain would be her.
Much of Rainier is hidden from our vantage point frequently which is why, on a clear day, you will hear Seattleites say, "The mountain is OUT today!" As if it had gone into hiding on other days...
It's impressive, but it's just a rock. It doesn't have a soul and it knows nothing.
@@jeffrachelburkhalter3783 That in itself is impressive. A massive death machine that is simply molten rock. Get ready to see it's soul.
7:05 I’m glad you confirmed the validity of my plan. If it erupts, I plan on immediately going to higher ground on Mt. Rainer. Should be safe up there.
Good thinking!
Sheaw, just surf the lahar to the P. Sound, Dude!😎
Big brain thinking right here!
The closer we are to danger, the further we are from harm XD
@@Soniti1324”Keep your mountains close, but your volcanos closer.”, as my Great-Grandpappy used to preach!

LITTLE MORE ABOUT RAINIER
1. Mt. Rainier's last big eruption was 5000-5400 yrs ago.
The Osceola mud flow.
2. Lahar's reached port of Tacoma and the port of Seattle.
3. Rainier's current cone is 500,000 yrs old.
4. Activity began 800,000 yrs ago.
5. The jagged peak to the east of Rainier's summit is called "little Tahoma".
During the eruption 5000 yrs ago, 1600 feet of Rainier's summit suddenly slid off.
Tahoma is the remnant of Rainier's former slopes when it was 16,000 feet.
Canr wait for round two to wash away Seattle.
@@heatherhoward4197 - Your waiting will be futile. The most massive potential lahar from a Rainier eruption •might• reach the mouth of the Duwamish River in Seattle, but its volume and energy would be largely spent by then. It would pose little direct threat to human life in Seattle, or to the city’s infrastructure. For Seattle, the most substantial adverse effect of such an event would be to require some dredging of the navigable stretches of the Duwamish, and of some port facilities.
@@ColumbiaB darn. Nvm then ill have to wait for the ocean to wash it away
@@heatherhoward4197 - That will take even longer.
@@ColumbiaB naturally mabey. Nuclear underwater detonation from the chinese off the coast could cause mile high tsunami's or a large asteroid. I can only hope and pray
When I lived in Seattle, we had a saying: "If you can see Mount Rainier, it's going to rain. If you can't see Mount Rainier, well, it's raining."
Down near Puyallup and Tacoma, we have a saying, "If you can see the mountain, no, you can't, it's raining."
Nobody says that shit here
@@bizichyldfax never heard that here
In Puyallup, if there’s a hat it’s gonna rain tomorrow
Being a born and raised Washingtonian and Seattlelite I still feel at awe when I see this beautiful mountain!🏔🏞
It’s the most beautiful I’ve ever seen
im sorry you live in seattle
@@samuelemcnliving in Seattle is amazing. Way better than the bum fuck state you live in
@@samuelemcnwdym?
Good luck when it blows and it will. You best find a new home for your family if you are smart!
Fantastic work! After I moved to Seattle I couldn’t believe Rainier wasn’t more well known. Also, it’s like 90 feet from being the tallest mountain in the lower 48. And it’s practically next to the ocean! Its MASSIVE
It’s not well known?
I visited Seattle for the first time this year and luckily the mountain was out in full force a few of the days. I couldn't believe just how big it looked in person. I had seen pictures, but seeing it in real life to me was comparable to seeing the death star. Just how big it looks from almost 3 hrs away in Seattle is crazy. We did visit the park and drive up to paradise but it was mostly snowed in still so unfortunately didn't get to do much hiking in rainier. Olympic was also beautiful and diverse as well.
@@artugert outside of Seattle not at all
@@prussianblue7040 not true. Even my friends in Australia know about her.
@@judeless77 People in this day in age are very uneducated, especially the younger generation. If you took a poll around the US outside of the PNW, around 80% of Gen Z wouldn't know where or what Rainier is when asked. It's different for every person, but that's a good generalization. I suppose it depends on the age group!
"Dormant... but alive." What an absolutely perfect quote to end this little mini masterpiece. Well done my friend, very well done.
I’ve travelled quite extensively over the years. I’ve climbed Vesuvius, toured the Kilauea national park, been to Mt Saint Helen’s, travelled through parts of Central America and north of South America and saw several active volcanoes. Enjoyed it all but nothing had a more profound effect on me than the first time I saw Mt Rainier. Like Mt Saint Helens, you cannot imagine how big it is or how majestic it is. I had been in Seattle about 4 days and not seen it because of cloud. My last day there, woke up, went outside and there it was. It is more impressive viewing it from Seattle. The closer you get to it the less you see. From Seattle, because of the distance and the tree covered ranges in between, it looks like it’s floating. Absolutely worth seeing….and Seattle is pretty damn good too.😊
Love Rainier, but Denali…
It being too cloudy to see Rainier three out of four days sounds about right.
I’m a Californian and I used to go visit my family in Washington sometimes. I loved being able to see Mt St Helen’s massive crater. It’s so unreal how huge that hole is on the side of her but I also wanted to see Mt Rainer fully intact.
I did once when I went to Tacoma and I was glad I was not driving because I could not take my eyes off of that beautiful Mountain. It’s so huge and looks like a backdrop in a movie. I’m grateful it was sunny that day. I should go back and get some pictures now that I have a good camera.
I’ve lived in Washington my entire life and my parents did yearly visits to Mt. Rainier every winter when I was a toddler up until I was in middle school. It’s a core childhood memory! It’s pretty sad to know that such a beautiful and majestic mountain and a core memory can cause mass destruction.
Last time I was in the area I remember being in awe of how enormous rainier looks even from Seattle.
Duuuuuude GET OUT this was so freakin incredible! Informative, entertaining, captivating, beautiful and cinematic, well-narrated, well-paced, well-researched. Really Aidin, be proud of this. You've been making some of my absolutely favorite stuff lately as well as inspiring me to get out, explore, and create something of my own. Well done 👏
As someone that lives in Seattle, this video is really cool. You did a great job describing how huge Rainier is and of course the images throughout were breathtaking.
I live in Seattle and I can tell you that without a doubt, Mt. Rainier is the Queen of the valley. She towers over everything and is truly majestic. We all respect her.
I remember when I lived in Kent WA about 25 years ago. I always remembered the talk as a kid about the next Osceola Lahar. How it would cause extreme amounts of damage and the horrific loss of life. If anyone would be interested in a vid I saw last year, look up Mt Rainier's Osceola mudflow by central washington university. Nick Zentner does a fantastic job of explaining about this. Anyway thanks Aiden for presenting this.
I love how you breach out more and more and expand the travel filmmaking niche!
Your storytelling, visuals and audio are all so good man. Definitely an inspiration.
Fun fact, Mount Mazama used to be roughly the same height as Ranier. But the last major eruption removed 3000 feet. It is now mainly known as Crater Lake.
Mt Mazama is only around 12,000 ft tall before it collapses into Crater Lake 7700 years, and 7700 years ago, Mt Rainier is around 16,000 ft tall, a full 4000 ft taller
@@curious5887So you are saying Mt. Rainier lost nearly 2000 ft of height since 7700 years ago?
@@SuperCatacata yes, as 5000 years ago, the Osceola landslide happened that remove 2000ft of height from the volcano summit
@@SuperCatacata Look up Mt. St. Helens. When she erupted in 1980, it blew off close to 1200 feet. That stuff just didn't evaporate into thin air, that what becomes the lehar he was talking about. I grew up in Olympia, in the shadow of the mountain ( Rainier) and lived thru the eruption of Mt. St. Helens. Out here in Ohio/Indiana where I live now, the people have ZERO comprehension of the shear mass of those mountains, nor the heights.
This channel / author did a vid on Mt. St. Helens. The pre 1980 and post 1980 pictures are vastly different. Even today, it still does not look like the same mountain.
Your videos are next level. I remember seeing Rainier from the plane flying into Seattle and being absolutely awestruck.
Bro your story telling skills along with your sound design , color grading , pre planning , shot list & edits are just as impressive as that mountain to put it in perspective. Sooo so good !
and stuff
i live a ferry boat trip away from seattle. there’s this farm field area that i drive by every day to go to school and it’s beautiful. you can see rainier SO well, the photos you can get from that spot are fantastic. i don’t think i appreciate the beauty of it enough, though. also, seeing it in anything, i think “hell yeah that’s my mountain”
I live in the Puyallup valley so I get one of the best views of Mt Rainier but also am very vulnerable. It’s crazy how the thing I feel grateful for every day when I see it on my drive to work is the same thing that could be my destruction. She deserves respect! Also a lot of us in the area call her Mt. Tahoma - the name given by the indigenous peoples of the area, meaning “Mother of all Waters”. Magnificent video by the way, I learned some things even though i’ve lived in her shadow my whole life. And you are absolutely right about how imposing she is and how you can always feel her there. She has an amazing spiritual energy, thank you for highlighting how amazing Tahoma is!!
There is another mountain that is even more impressive geologically than Mt. Rainer (and even Mt. Everest imho). It is Denali in Alaska.
With an elevation of 20,310 feet and a prominence of *20,146 feet*. Its a huge mountain that almost seems to rise out of nowhere from its surroundings. Very, very impressive and special place.
Denali is very much on the list 👌 (and Alaska in general)
I used to live in Healy AK. And Yes , Mt. McKinley is impressive. But it is not a volcano. I now live 35 mi. due west of Mt. Rainier , i bought property with a hill between the mountain and me. Theres a 25 ft. swail drops down to my pasture from the last huge eruption and the lahar that came down the Nisqually river. Hopefully were high enough and hidden enough from the next one! There were 41 quake storms under Rainier last month. Its overdue. We’ll see. Its boom time!
@@jeffpalmer5502 Why on earth would you buy property next to one of the most dangerous volcanos in the world?!? LOL I wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
Why is a mountain in Mexico and not Denali the parent of mt rainier for prominence reasons?
Denali is _crazy._ There's no words to describe how huge it is.
When I lived in anchorage, you can see it on clear days. Along with Mount Foraker, a huge sister peak.
Denali is roughly _135 miles away_ (220 km) as the crow flies. Even seeing it from that distance it looks enormous.
Grew up in Seattle and left for college to the north. Its always shocking when I come back down to Seattle and see Mt Ranier. It's absolutely huge. Growing up with it on the horizon really makes flatter parts of the country feel just extra strange.
This place is in my backyard. And such amazing camping all around it. You told its story so great and left me wishing this was like 45 minutes long. So well done. I would have loved to have been a part of this with you since it's so close to me.
Great video! I like the science documentary style you've gone for :) Mt. Rainier is absolutely my favorite mountain, the scale of it is beyond comprehension and those clear days in Seattle are oh so special when you see the volcano fading into the blue of the sky - as if it was only a mirage, a dream. But it's there, the raw beauty of the nature.
An excellent video presenting about a topic that can make some people quite nervous while others are completely oblivious. I live in the Lahar zone for Mount Rainier and regularly see 'Volcano Evacuation Route' signs along the roadways here. There are also Lahar warning sirens, similar to tornado sirens in the mid-west, in many of the smaller towns like Orting and South Prairie. Hopefully they continue to remain silent. The one clip you had of the muffler shop in Auburn, WA made me smile, as I see this everyday.
I have been here nearly 30 years and it NEVER gets old when you see it. Still as breathtaking as the first time.
My 7 year old daughter has Lahar drills at her school. It's actually really comforting.
This is amazing! I just went there this past summer and you completely encapsulated all the feelings I had about being in Mt. Rainer
So well made! Beautiful visuals and storytelling. Mount Rainier (Tahoma) has always captivated me, living for most of my life in it's shadows in the Puyallup area. I've been away for a few years, but I'll be back this month for good. I can't wait to explore the area again. For all of it's potential dangers (and frequent dangers, such as flooding during years of intense snowfall or rain), you just can't keep away.
As a WA resident I wished the narrator would have referred to the Mountain as Mt Tahoma as many of us do here. Mssr. Rainier never even saw his namesake, so he's undeserving of imparting his name on her. Denali has caught on, so perhaps Tahoma will too.
Thanks Aidin for this work of art! I was lucky enough to travel here a few months ago and hike all around Rainier. It's some of the most beautiful landscape I've seen and your video captured it beautifully.
I vacationed in Seattle last year in February...only to actually end up moving here unexpectedly late last year! I love sunny days, I look for her every single time :) Nothing beats seeing her in all her glory on a rare day with sun everywhere and no clouds in sight. She's the epitome of dangerous beauty.
My man this was soooo well-made! I honestly was captivated from start to finish. Can't wait to watch more documentary-style videos from you!
HE NEVER MENTIONs MOUNT SAINT HELENS??? A perfect example to give you an understanding of what would happen.
I think Aidin is an idiot for missing such a huge fact that would give you a better understanding of the entire event of a Rainier Eruption
If you want to understand the eruption better, watch a Mount Saint Helens video!!!!!!! simple example that this fool misses
Prominence, to be clear, is determined as follows: for the target peak, you identify the closest peak that is taller than the target. Then you want to identify a point where, without human intervention, the ridge line starts going up towards the taller peak after going down. It’s not always easy to identify. In mount rainiers case you have to look towards a mountain in Mexico, pick de orizba. You cannot get between the two without dropping to 1000 feet or so.
Another local example: mount si. That big place a lot of people like to hike a little higher than 4000 feet. The prominence is how high it’s haystack is compared to the eastern approach (a couple hundred feet ). because the point it bottoms our which is just under 4000 feet is it’s col which determines mount si’s prominence. Little si, on the other hand, has a prominence of about 800 feet, which is the elevation gained after the flat part of the trail, which is also the col separating little si from mount si. So little si is much more prominent than mount si.
Poo poo point in issaquah? The prominence is no more than 20 feet, so it’s not really a peak by my book nothing to make it stand out aside from the views it offers.
Don't forget Ranier Beer. The best beer commercials ever. Ray-neeeeeeer-beeeeeer as the sound of a motorcycle traveling down a county road. Don't forget the dancing refrigerators. And the talking frogs.
Love all the beautiful footage! Had no idea about the two different types of elevation that makes a lot of sense now.
your story telling never fails!! Love the newer content you're producing!
Even as a Oregonian, you can see Tahoma (Rainier) on clear days from various vantages, from the Astoria Column (no joke, it's fucking wild and cool), to various places in the Portland Metro. It's even slightly more viewable from here than Mt. Jefferson is, which you really wouldn't think could or should be possible. A really fun bit of this is that the more you really observe, explore & study, the more you realize that we here in Oregon often assume we're seeing Mt. Adams (Pahto, Klickitat) when we're really seeing Tahoma. It's crazy once you realize it from various locations that it's Rainier and not Adams. Crazy! The I-5 Bridge on a clear atmosphere day you can see Helens, Rainier, Adams, Hood AND Jefferson, which is SO FUCKING COOL.
Anyway, funny enough, I have zero concerns and instead a lot of excitement for a major eruptive event from any of our volcanos here in Cascadia. Even Wy'East (Hood) despite living on the west side of the Portland area. The only thing that would keep me here with finanical oppotunity or freedom is family and even more so the natural ecosystems and environment here. That's it. But that latter bit is so impactful and powerful, it makes it SO hard to consider leaving. There truly is no place on earth like here in the Pacific Northwest. We take it for granted so much that even when we eat, sleep and breathe being out in the wilderness here, maybe even living there, we still take it for granted without realizing it. People make comparisons all the time "it looks just like (place in the alps of Europe)", is the most common one. But it really doesn't at all. It looks VERY unique here. Even Oregon, Washington, BC, Yukon and Alaska all look entirely unique despite us all being Pacific Northwestern/Cascadian. It's easy to quickly if not immediately detect and see the differences between each place. And that's so freaking epic.
I can't believe how used to seeing this friggin thing I am. Every time someone visits they're absolutely stunned at the site of this mountain. I live about an hour south of Seattle and Rainier TOWERS above anything else on the horizon. It's awe inspiring. Truly.
This was absolutely insane. The story telling was spot on
Awesome video! I love Mt. Rainier, had the pleasure of visiting it, which was such an awesome time :)
Mt Rainier; dangerously beautiful!
Born and raised in Tukwila, and moved to So Cal @ 11 years old. As a trucker, I've been back about a dozen times, and I Love it. But whenever I tried to take a clear picture of the mountain, she'd always hide from me! Now I'm in my 60's, and I hope with all of my heart that I may return someday soon and let nature recharge my body and my soul.... even if it's raining!🌧 I❤the PNW!
Amazing amazing video Aidin. It's top notch right from inception. The storytelling, the information, brilliant cinematography and awesome editing. Last but not the least, the interesting choice of such a calming music to explain a completely opposing topic (eruption of a volcano). It gives a different perspective to the viewpoint.
Fantastic work again on the Northwest, Aidin! I can't imagine living that close to such a titan as Mt. Rainier; it would be so beautiful yet imposing to just have that view from my backyard.
I live 15 miles from rainer as a bird Flys. It's pretty incredible to see it every day. Luckily I live 500 feet above the river valley's.
Thank you, this was really well done! I particularly enjoyed the graphics comparing various mountains‘ prominence. I recently moved from Central California to a small town North of Seattle. I am fully aware of Mt Rainier‘s… and a few other volcanos‘) dangers. (Not to mention potential dangers from earthquakes resulting from the Cascadia subduction zone. So many people here really don’t know the dangers. They keep telling me there are no earthquakes in WA). I’ve only visited Rainier once years ago. I must go back soon to explore more! It certainly is very beautiful! Thanks again for your enlightening documentary!
Who's telling you there are no earthquakes in WA 🤣
You've always been an incredibly talented shooter and editor, but this, I think, is a great direction for you to go in. It's truly about travel, because we learn something about the location and the people, and it's not all about what you and your friends did when you visited (which is what about 95% percent of TH-cam "travel" docs are...they're vacation films) . But this one is a giant leap forward. Congrats, kudos, keep up the good work and look out, Johnny Harris!
on a flight we were instructed into a holding pattern and the pilot did 4 circles around Rainer, 2 in both directions. Whoever that pilot was, you are the goat.
Very good video. A little too short in my opinion. There is so much more to talk about when it comes to Rainier. But that's just me. I could go on for days about Mount Tahoma. (Tahoma is what the Native people call(ed) the mountain, and in Salish it means "Mother of Water".) I will definitely watch more of your videos in the future.
I think that the scariest thing about volcanoes isn’t the volcanoes themselves, it is the fact that when (not if) it erupts, a lot of people will freak out. When we lived in Oklahoma, it was scary the amount of people who had no clue what to do if a tornado happened. On the first Saturday of every month, we had a tornado drill at home. The sirens would sound at 12, and you had 5 minutes to get everything you needed (food, dogs, first aid kit, important documents) in the shelter. With a volcano, you have weeks of notice. Not minutes. If the geologists say “it is likely to erupt”, then you start packing, and hit the road, don’t stop at stores and panic buy, just go. Worst case scenario, you hear the eruption sirens go off, you get a go bag, and you run, not drive, your ass up the hill,
I got the chills watching this. A truly masterfully edited video and that ending spiel.. goosebumps. Well done!
The sound design in this is just... stunning. Absolutely captivating.
Wow, all shots are just amazing!
I didn’t know you were in Seattle! This is my home. Thanks for doing a video about it. Amazing work as always! Bro, next time you come here. You should take a hike at High Rock Lookout in the Summer. Hike before sunset and it’s freakin beautiful. You would able to see most of our mountains in a 360 pov in a good day. The blue hour is also fantastic, you would see different hues in the sky that I’ve never seen before. Check it out.
Big fan of your backyard! High Rock was actually on the itinerary for this one but we weren’t able to squeeze it in- next time!
The music at 0:38 is unbelievable! The song changed key totally and scale. Gorgeous.
Ah, I see that you filmed this on the Skyline trail. The prominence of that mountain is impressive. I hike to camp Muir at least once a year, and it never ceases to amaze. I also hike and offroad in the mountains around Rainier, and after 9 years in Washington, seeing Rainier is still impressive.
What if? Well, when it does, it does. Nobody knows when it might, it could be in 100yrs, or 1000 yrs. I have enjoyed climbing it and it is special place for me. I feel the higher I climb I get to get away from the people who I can't stand in normal society. The people I meet high on the mountain are better people than those you will encounter down at the parking lot. Paradise is full of human garbage, Muir is awesome and being high on the mountain is otherworldly.
I loved climbing it. I still dream about it.
Anyone getting this randomly recommended?

I lived in Sumner for two years and studied up on how to stay alive. The biggest omission I noticed in your review is that the rock is literally rotting. From what I remember reading, the sulphuric gasses from inside the mountain are corroding the rock from the inside and one study showed that the rock on the western face is an order of magnitude more crumbly than the eastern face. So there's a possibility that it won't give the anticipated warnings before an eruption but rather collapse on itself.
Just one little tidbit from someone who planned his escape route by anticipating which hills would become islands surrounded by lahar (looking at you, Bonney Lake!) and which would still connect to the mainland.🏃🏼
I live up here in Bonney Lake off Sky Island. We're a bit higher up here for sure. We'll have a good view at least.
@@adamrichardson2227 Nice. And Sky Island might get to be a real island someday!
@@brianwrussell Well, I hope not.. Water front property would be cool but not overnight :D

Her name is Tahoma.
Tahoma means "The Mother of Waters" and comes from the local Puyallup tribe.
Rainier was a British admiral who wasn't even present when Captain Vancouver observed the mountain while surveying the coast. He just happened to be a friend of Vancouver so Vancouver named the mountain after him. In fact, Rainier never actually saw the mountain in person, yet it bears his name.
Tahoma is a far better name.
Such an incredible piece of work, not to mention extremely informative. Thank you for the work, was amazing!!
So sick dude. I reallllyyy appreciate all the creative motion graphics you add. Really helps tie the story together.
I don't have words to appreciate for such an amazing content! Amazing documentary, great fimling and awesome edits! I hae been away for a while but its always good to see your content!
There is No doubt that you are one of the finest and 'the' best content creator, cinematographer, videographer and editor on TH-cam.
Keep it up bro!
This is so interesting and well made! Shots and editing are flawless as always. Keep it up!
Thanks for the overlay graphic. I had no idea about the true size of Mt. Rainier.
Good for you man. You're doing great work you're going to go FAR. Keep up the good work.
loving your new style of content lately! keep creating :)
Super interesting and informative as well as beautifully shot, edited and mixed. Well done! Can’t wait to see what u get up to next😁
I’m blessed to see this mountain from my house on Puget Sound every day that the weather permits, and I’m never to busy to stop and appreciate its beauty.
I love that you say that you can always see it, from almost wherever you are around here, if your just high enough you can almost always spot it on a clear day
I grew up in Enumclaw which is the closest city to the mountain. My parents positioned the home they built in 1970 with an 6 x6 picture window with Rainier filling the view in all of it's glory. I grew up looking at it daily. My husband is from Montreal and he would just stand at stare at the mountain in awe. It was interesting to experience his reaction. My grandfather actually climbed to the top a few times well into his 70's. I appreciate it's beauty much more as an adult. It has always scared the hell out of me knowing it could erupt "any day".
This is dope! The video is informative and cinematic at the same time and the storytelling was on point. Keep it up🔥
The intro is EPIC. And the whole story is amazing Aidin. Really Really one of your best videos. Thanks
Awesome video man! Love the cinematic/educational videos you’ve been putting out lately
I live in the lahar zone 😬😬 i see it anytime I go outside and the way you described how big it is and comparison to others was so helpful to put it into perspective. Thanks!
Aidin, I enjoy your videos because they're a mini history lesson while also being very engaging and fun to watch. Keep it up!
Hello, Aidin :) I just wanted to say keep up the good work, you mini docus are so captivating and informative, I always watch them!
I lived in Seattle for 40 years. In the Winter months, sightings are rare because of the infamous cloud cover. In the Summer, you see it almost every day from July thru September. There are so many varying environmental factors in play, it looks different every time you see it.
Even after 40 years, the stunning beauty of Seattle & Mt. Rainier can still stop me in my tracks on a daily basis.
Bro I grew up here and I learned so much 😂. Such dope editing brother!!!
What a great storytelling and editing. The best as always. Thank you for this so inspiring and educational.
From Seattle, the view of Mt. Rainier is amazing. See it before you die, but also see a total solar eclipse, which is even more awesome. Wish I could post a picture I took from near my home; you would be amazed.
Excellent video Aidin! The graphics you pour tons of time into really are incredible! Amazing work.
Your storytelling is next level man! Awesome video.
It's 47 second and I am just fascinated ..you used your top class cinematography to make a documentary style video..I like the way you are experimenting different style..loving the work..keep doing❤️❤️
You put so much effort in your videos and it`s worth it. They are amazing
Geez man. This is beyond next level. So inspiring to see your filmmaking journey!!
Tahoma is a stunning natural beauty. The phrase "is the mountain out" is a ubiquitous statement here in Seattle. What's more impressive is that it's just the biggest of several glaciated stratovocanos in the area. On a very clear day, you can see beyond Jefferson to The Sisters area from Muir and above (~200 miles as the crow flies!)
Such a good video Aidin, fantastic editing and great storytelling. You can tell you've done your research and I love your use of maps throughout, great job!
He misses a ton of facts, like ummm.
MOUNT SAINT HELENS ERUPTION IN May of 1980 !!!that would pretty much sum up an example of the dangers of Mount Rainier not mentioned ONCE????

Living this close to Mt Rainier, having a plan for eruption & meet up places is something I’ve just come to accept as my norm. I live close enough to feel the rumbling it creates, a lot more lately. I see this beautiful mountain everyday & I will miss it the day it goes. I fear for anyone uninformed enough to live in the Orting & Puyallup valleys. It’s insane seeing the expansion of these places knowing the valleys even exist bc they were dug out by the eruptions & flows prior which we know that no matter what way it goes, they will be destroyed. I have noticed these homes tend to be sold to people out of state. That’s just so sad. There’s too many people & too few routes for even half of these people to get out. And let’s not forget people forget about the ash & how this will break down cars & gas masks are necessary. Please don’t move to these locations. Please. If you live in a valley near it, just look to the hills. It CARVED it out of those hills. There’s very specific timelines to get out
Born and raised in Tacoma. My family always had emergency protocols in place in case the mountain ever did erupt. I think that's cause my parents remember St. Helens.
More importantly to me though, is that prominence. The mountain is always visible. It's often a matter of discussion in my hometown. "Oh the mountain is out today, isn't she beautiful?". I live out of state and I still get nostalgia when I see it. Occasionally friends of mine will send me photos of her.
I love this mountain with all my heart.
0:38 I grew up in Buckley, within 20-25 mins of the national park, and the opening minute really reminded me of 'home', swimming in Tapps, splashing in the carbon river, driving down Oriville rd. to Eatonville, and often Morton (shown in previous shot). And I could almost see the 'if it goes up or blows up sign' Auburn put up each year just a little bit farther down that road.
Living out there was really interesting for some of the reasons you point out. Schools in the area had annual lahar drills and while we were on higher ground occasionally I'd cath the lahar sirens going off for drills/testing. Finally, the Volcano evacuation route sign which are so ubiquitous in east and central Pierce County, but which I had all but forgotten about. Awesome video, makes me miss home.
found my way back to this video after nearly a year. For some reference, Mt. Rainer is so unbelievably massive you can clearly make it out from Vancouver, BC and even high points on the Sunshine Coast. I'm planning on attempting to summit this mountain before I turn 19, and it's definitely an intimidating goal.
Nice trick with the distorted ticking clock right at the end of the video there, dude.
My wife and her family are in the Seattle area, and I recall seeing Rainier for the first time. I've lived in Colorado for over 20 years, so mountains over 14K aren't anything new to me.
But a mountain with nearly 14K of _prominence,_ holy crap, I had never seen that before. It. Is. *MASSIVE.*
When you compared it to K2, that really put things into perspective. My wife's family will get a kick out of that!
