The little town of Rainier WA is one of the jumping-off points for the network of bicycle trails which includes the Yelm-Tenino and Chehalis-Western. It was a railroad community in the dim beginnings when this schoolhouse was built, and it was also my home address for over fifteen years. The schoolhouse now houses a thrift shop and the local food bank although it is classified as a "historic building." It has been restored to somewhat better condition than it was in during the time I lived on the grass prairie which surrounds the town. Rainier-as-town is over an hour's drive from the actual Mountain, and is often confused with Rainier OR, a town of much greater size.
