Little Tahoma Peak is a prominent satellite peak on the flank of Mount Rainier in Mount Rainier National Park, visible from Seattle more than 60 miles away and high enough that, if counted separately, it would rank as Washington’s third-highest mountain. It is a volcanic remnant, preserving part of a larger Mount Rainier worn down over time. Its unstable rock was dramatically demonstrated in 1963, when a large avalanche spread debris across the lower Emmons Glacier. Near Fryingpan and Whitman glaciers, the peak is most easily approached from Summerland. J. B. Flett and Henry H. Garrison made the first recorded ascent on August 29, 1894.
