Mt. Rainier has erupted 11 confirmed times in the last 10,000 years. Most of these eruptions (8) are concentrated between 6500 and 4000 years ago. Since the eruption 2,200 years ago there has only been one recorded explosive eruption as identified and dated through airfall tephra and tree ring dating. This eruption was believed to be between 1820 and 1854 AD. For further information on the more distant geologic history and understanding of future risks from Mt. Rainier see related links to the Cascades Volcano Observatory.
Mount Rainier last erupted in 1894.Clarification:The last recorded volcanic eruption of Mt Rainer was between 1820 and 1854, but there have been many witnesses to further volcanic activity and rumblings in 1858, 1870, 1879, 1882 and 1894.
Mt. Rainier is in the Cascade range of mountains that runs north-south from southern British Columbia in Canada to Northern California, along the western part of the North American tectonic plate.

Mount Vesuvius is located on what is known as the Campanian Volcanic Arc. Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD and caused the destruction of Pompeii.
Even a relatively small eruption at Mount Rainier could melt the snow and ice at the volcano's summit. This could mix with volcanic ash as well as sediment around the volcano, forming mudflows called lahars. These could potentially devastate nearby towns and even the city of Tacoma. The mud could then clog river channels, causing the rivers to back up and flood portions of Seattle.

NO there are no tapeworms at mt. rainier.

It went boom many times and people died.
There are many volcanoes in the Cascade range. The most famous is Mt. St. Helens, which erupted on May 18, 1980, killing 57 people. The largest volcano in the cascade range is Mt. Rainier.
