Yes, there are many glaciers on the mountain above about 8,000 feet where snow and ice don't melt. Hundreds of inches fall every year on Paradise Ranger station which is around 5500 feet, and it often doesn't completely melt until late June or July at that elevation. But it does all melt. You have to get above 7-8 thousand feet, depending on the year, to find snow that does not melt.

Yes, Mount Rainier has snow year-round due to its high elevation and location in the Cascade Range. The snow can persist even through the summer months at higher elevations on the mountain.
