Mount Rainier.... is shorter than Mt Whitney in California by 85 feet. Colorado peaks also surpass its summit in elevation, but Mt Rainier stands supreme above the Sierra and Rockies in its heavy glaciations and single isolated peak status. (High Sierra and Rockies peaks are usually bumps on a high ridge)
