Description
WikipediaEagle Peak is a 5,958-foot (1,816-metre) mountain summit in Lewis County of Washington state. It is set on the west end of the Tatoosh Range which is a sub-range of the Cascade Range. It is located south of Mount Rainier, within Mount Rainier National Park, and immediately east of Longmire. Eagle Peak was originally known as Simlayshe, a Native American word meaning eagle. George Longmire anglicized the name to Eagle Peak. The four-mile Eagle Peak Trail leads to views of Mount Rainier. The summit of Eagle Peak requires scrambling. Precipitation runoff on the peak drains into the Nisqually River.
