What's an "Irish Cabin Peak?" I've just never heard that phrase before, and I'm thinking it must be one of the (many) things everybody else knows and I just never picked up on ...
Good pick up! Irish Cabin Peaks are a group of summit west of Mount Rainier. They are basically a little of larger foothills of the much larger Mount Rainier that the Mountaineers, a major hiking organization in Seattle has put up for climbers to summit. Mount Pleasant and Hessong Rock are on that list. Look for a couple more in the near future.
