Why is the top of Mount Rainier white?

The top of Mount Rainier is white because it is covered in snow and ice year-round due to its high elevation and cold climate. Snow accumulates on the summit and sticks around, creating the appearance of a white peak.


How many people died when mt rainier exploded?

As well as I can determine, none from volcanic eruption. It has not erupted for well over 150 years, so the area was very sparcely populated and apparently there were not even any permanent Native American habitations in the immediate vicinity, so if there were any fatalities, they would not have been recorded. In recent years, there have been about three mountaineering fatalities annually, but I could not find a total number.


What mountains remain snow caped all year?

The Himalayan Mountains are the highest mountains in the world. They are covered in snow all year from the altitude. The higher the point, the colder it gets. So, the Himalayan Mountains are so tall that the caps are snow capped all year.


Is there snow on Mt Rainier year 'round?

Yes, there are many glaciers on the mountain above about 8,000 feet where snow and ice don't melt. Hundreds of inches fall every year on Paradise Ranger station which is around 5500 feet, and it often doesn't completely melt until late June or July at that elevation. But it does all melt. You have to get above 7-8 thousand feet, depending on the year, to find snow that does not melt.


What is the name of a national park that has snow all year round?
