Is Mount Rainier a disruption to society?
Not presently. Mount Rainier has not erupted in over a century and actually serves as a tourist attraction. However, it is considered to be the most dangerous volcano in the United States. While it is not as active as Mount St. the effects of an eruption would be far worse. It has the potential to produce very large, devastating mudflows that could inundate portions of Tacoma and Seattle.
