The Olympic Peninsula is in northwestern Washington. The Pacific Ocean is its western border, the Strait of Juan de Fuca is its northern border, and the Puget Sound is its eastern border. The Olympic Mountains are located in the center of the Olympic Peninsula. Clouds form over the ocean and travel inland until they reach the mountains. There the clouds pile up and lose their moisture as snow and rain. The forests are thick on the Olympic Peninsula because of all the snow and rain that fall there. Logging is an important part of the economy here and occurs on private land, on land owned by the state, and in the Olympic National Forest. Logging does not occur in the Olympic National Park. Fishing is another important industry in the Olympic Peninsula region.
The Coast Range is a mountain range located in southwestern Washington, east of Willapa Bay, and extending into Oregon. Because the climate is like the climate on the Olympic Peninsula, fishing and forestry are important industries here also.
Most Washingtonians live in the Puget Sound Lowlands. This region has many cities. It extends along either side of the Puget Sound from Olympia in the south to British Columbia in the north. Many ships come and go because this is an ideal location for sea ports. The temperatures are mild here, and about 37 inches of rain fall each year.
To the east, the Puget Sound Lowlands are bordered by the Cascade Mountains. This range of mountains makes eastern Washington much drier because the mountains block the clouds. The clouds lose most of their moisture as they go over the mountains, and the winds have little moisture left when they reach the Columbia Plateau.
This large region is located in southeastern Washington.
