Tahoma

Nice photo.

I like referring to the Lake Tapps area as Auburn. Makes people crazy, which makes it worth doing. 😂

Thank you! I’m not from Washington originally, I moved up three years ago and have been finding that I love it here! I don’t see myself living anywhere else now.

Eh, if you’re trying to go for a different city name, Bonney Lake would make more sense

Oh man, I’ve had some good times on Lake Tapps.

I'm going to start referring to this as TTS (Tahoma Tourette's Syndrome)

So many good childhood memories there.

That's awesome, champ! No, really, good for you, little buddy.

Do you need me to send a card on your behalf to anyone, sport?

Yeah, mock both a serious psychological disorder AND the wishes of the Native peoples.

You’re so cool. Really punching down

I’m wholeheartedly convinced people’s opposition to using the native name (which the tribes of WA want used) is rooted in anglo-supremacy BS.

Rainer wasn’t even an American. In fact he FOUGHT against the founding of the US. Why people would want to honor a loser brit over the native name is beyond me.

It's impressive, really. /u/pala4833 managed to malign indigenous persons and those suffering from Tourette's Syndrome in one comment.

Show's not only their anglo-supremecy BS, but that they are also an ableist who likely hasn't had to suffer the slightest adversity in life so they are okay on shitting on any person that is 'other'.

Ahhh I've had some good times on the lake tapps golf course!! Thanks for bringing back the memories! Greta pic of the Mauna!!

Yeah but the area around the lake I think is considered Auburn/Lakeland Hills.

Depends on which end. The north side of the lake is definitely closer to Lakeland / Auburn but the south end is closer to Bonney Lake

Keep in mind that Tahoma is actually the generic term for all white-capped mountains. Rainier does have a specific native name, which I can’t remember right now. I’ll see if I can find it again.

See?! This is what I do it for!!!! That just totally made my day and I am overjoyed that a simple pic I took could do that for you!!!!! You are very welcomed!!!!

Yes! I love. I haven't lived in the NW for 15 years and haven't seen those friends for ten but you took me back to early summer, carefree days from another time in my life. I would have never gone down that memory lane without you.

And it's my birthday so thank you for the present! Also say whats up to mt rainier for me!

Check out the green river gorge it's enumclaw area.... Pass over a narrow bridge and then walk down to a beautiful spot (small hike) there's a "waterfall" you can walk under and then when the water is low you can walk further down and summer time it's usually Poppin

It’s neurodevelopmental, not psychological. The rest of your point still stands however.

I used to deliver out that way back when I worked for Amazon!!!! I absolutely love traveling around your fine state!!!!
