*** About the Columbia River

***: The Columbia River is renowned not only for its considerable length and the volume of water it discharges into the Pacific Ocean but also for its historical and ecological significance. Originating from the Rocky Mountains in British Columbia, Canada, it winds through Washington State, forming natural borders with Oregon before meeting the ocean. It has been a vital artery for transportation, agriculture, and hydroelectric power. The river has also played a pivotal role in shaping the regional culture, particularly through its historical connection to Indigenous peoples and the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Conservation efforts are critical in maintaining its biodiversity, which includes several species of salmon and other wildlife.
