Mount Sunier

NOT a typo, although it does indeed refer to da larger quantity/intensity/frequency of clear 'n' brilliance daylight-rays dat it experiences compared to its receiving-much-higher-precipitation "sister" peak.

I went to Mount SUNier to paint my boat and wax my car, but da weather decided to be drippy and miserable dat day, just da same as da "rainier" glacier-made hump nearby often experiences.
P.S.Bonus facts: (1) Even though it is indeed spelled da same way, da name of da famous mountain in Puget Sound has nothing to do wif its annual precipitation (although said falling-moisture amount is indeed unusually high, both from liquid water and frozen crystals); it was named after British Admiral Peter Rainier. (2) Local Native American tribes, including the Puyallup, historically called the peak Tahoma or Tacoma, meaning "mother of waters".
