to Washington
Washington is
bounded by the Pacific Ocean to the west, Oregon to the south (the Columbia
River forming most of this border), Idaho to the east and British Columbia,
Canada to the north.
It is famous for scenery of breathtaking beauty
and sharp contrasts. High mountains rise above evergreen forests and sparkling
coastal waters. Its coastal location and Puget Sound harbors give it a leading
role in trade with Alaska, Canada, and the Pacific Rim. Puget Sound's many
islands are served by the largest ferry fleet in the United States.
