Where would I find a map of projected
mud flows, floods and general path of
destruction if Mt Rainier blew ?

Dear Steve,
"Debris Flow, Debris Avalanche, and Flood Hazards At and Downstream from
Mount
Rainier," consists of maps showing potential areas and probabilities of
inundation, and was published as "USGS Hydrologic Investigations Atlas
729," by K.M. Scott and J.W.Vallance. The U.S. Geological Survey's
Cascade Volcano Observatory
homepage provides lots of useful information on these hazards and on
Mount
Rainier.
