Most Iconic Mountain in WA

Mt. Rainier
Well considering Spokane sits at 2000, the 5887 Mt. Spokane would only be 3887 around the surrounding flat lands. About 800 feet higher than Tiger Mtn, which has an elevation 3004 feet. Basically they look kind of the same. Big rounded mountains with some decent views from the top. If it makes you happier how about a comparison to Rattlesnake Ridge? Its just shy of 3500 feet.
I generally have issues with people from Colorado and Utah, but mostly Colorado about their 14000 talk. I'm sorry but visually those are 9000 peaks on a 5000 pedestal. Mt. Spokane kind of suffers from this as well.

Prominence. Isolation. These aren't things I made up. They MATTER. Elevation is BULLSHIT. You're preaching to the choir.

Location also matters. That's why Si and Spokane get some of my votes. Tiger, Rattlesnake, Cougar, Squak, they're all the same, and they are PISS. They're also fine, but they can suck a DICK. Mt Si. is right there. Can't have em all.

In the old days when Woodinville would play at Mount Si, you could see Mount Si from the field. It was awesome. Then they went and built a building and blocked the view from the field.
