Awesome photo. Mt Jefferson in the foreground. Then Mt Hood. Small correction….The big lump in the middle far distance is Mt Rainier - the mountain that would devastate Seattle, not Mt Shasta, which is over 500 miles to the south in California.
To the far right is Mt Adams and the far left is Mt St Helen’s, which terrorized us 43 years ago when it blew 1400 feet off its top and covered a lot of the area in ash.
