some friends, or your significant other and travel to Washington in

boating, camping, and hiking. Another place to visit in Northeast
Washington is Colville National Forest. This is a perfect place for
skiing because of the more than 300-mile ski trails. You can see
different types of animals here like caribou, moose, and grizzly bear.
In the exact opposite direction, southeast, you will find volcano
country.

the lava and ask from the 1980 eruption of Mt. St. Helens. There are

on Earth. A lodge and parking area is available overlooking Paradise
Valley. Mount Adams, one of the tallest volcanoes in this area, stands
at astonishing 12,276 feet above sea level. It has many trails for
those brave enough to climb it.
To the west of Volcano country is the coast. Long Beach Peninsula, a
must see on the coast, is the most southwestern corner of the state. If
traveling in summer, this is the place to go. Across Washington to the
east is known as The Palouse. Places to see in The Palouse include
Hells Canyon National Recreational Area and Umatilla National Forest.
Snake River runs through Hells Canyon, which is deeper than the Grand
Canyon. You can view the canyon by jet boats or by floating down the
river. Umatilla National Forest is a very popular spot during hunting
season. The forest is on an astonishing 1.4 million acres.
There are many activities to enjoy here such as fishing, hiking,
horseback riding, and skiing. Cascade Loop, located in the center of
Washington, is a self driven loop visiting several small towns,
forests, and mountains. The Grand Coulee Dam located at the Columbia
River is a giant man made structure. The dam, standing 550 feet high
and a mile across, is a site to see. Mount Baker, an ice-clad volcano,
is found in the North Cascades. Also found in the North Cascades region
