- Washington place names, via WWW, Nov. 29, 2004(Little Tahoma Peak: Little Tahoma Peak is at a wedge formed by the upper reaches of Whitman, Ohanapecosh and Fryingpan glaciers two and a half miles east of the summit of Mount Rainier. It is the highest point on the east flank of Mt. Rainier with an elevation 11,117 ft. The name is from the Indian word Tahoma, which is generally thought to mean snow-covered mountain or to please Tacomans, "The Mountain that was God." Big Tahoma Peak would be Mount Rainier.)
