    North Cascades mysteriously absent

    This thread is a fucking embarrassment.

    @YellowSnow claiming Oregon has superior geography is embarassing

    WA State only has 4 fucking mountain ranges (Cascades, Olympics, Selkirks, Blues), the most rugged range in the lower 48 (N. Cascades), 5 fucking real and tuff Volcanoes (Glacier Peak counts), a dense mossy rainforest, a fjord with tons of islands in it, the god damn Enchantments.

    Eastern Oregon is a wasteland east of Smith Rock. WA state actually has bodies of water and a river going through it. There is jack shit for hundreds of miles except scrub pine in Eastern Oregon.

    WA state wilderness is the big leagues, Oregon is the minors. The only thing I would say Oregon has over WA is better coastline, but WA has some great spots too.

    This thread really outs those who actually do outdoorsy shit from those who ski in Aspen and pretend.
    Again, I cry:

    There is fucking nothing in Eastern Oregon. Nothing. It is a wasteland on par with Northern Nevada.
    "Wasteland". FOH.















    That is Central Oregon. Christ.

    This is 99% of Eastern Oregon:



    Steens Mountain, the Elkhorns, the Wallowas, and the Snake River are absolutely Eastern Oregon. Just quit while you're behind.
    I'm not behind is where youre wrong. North Eastern Oregon where it touches the Snake River, Idaho and WA seems to have some cool stuff. Never been.

    From Bend to Burns to Boise is 500 miles of dust.. from Burns to California is dust. Look at it on google earth there is like 10 people in that entire stretch of land.

    I stand by my comment that WA is superior head to head. That doesnt mean Oregon sucks or has nothing worth seeing - dont twist

    @PostGameOrangeSlices there were only 3 ski resorts (2 hosted the winter olympics) within 5 mins of my high school and 9 total within 60 mins but I’m probably a poser hipster who doesn’t anything about the great outdoors.

    Less people the better. Check out Steens someday and thank me later.

    I don't disagree that WA is better overall. It is. I'm saying you're wrong that Eastern O is a wasteland. There are numerous big fucking mountains and Alp-like ranges in Eastern O that come as a shock to people that think it's just desert wasteland. It's an outdoorsman paradise. I've been all over it. DYOR.

    My aspen comment was a low tweak and not to be taken seriously.

    Washington has over 110 peaks taller than 7,000 feet. Oregon has less than 40.

    Alp like ranges? Dude just stop. Nothing in the US even comes close to the Alps - if anything does it's the Pickett Range in the N Cascades.



    I will check out those places you listed. Steens looks cool but it looks like it is surrounded by 200 miles of dirt

    My Dood. This is absurd.

    I've been in the middle of the middle of the middle of fucking nowhere in eastern Washington, eastern Montana, eastern Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming ... all of it. That there is greater land mass of such places in Oregon speaks to the fact that the boundaries were drawn much larger than those of Washington. It really doesn't matter.

    The point is there are a shit ton of absolutely spectacular God's country places in both states, which comprise the PNW. If you want to throw down Crater Lake vs. Hoh Rain Forest, then do it, but it's really not important. Why not both?

    Sure, but Oregon has more peaks above 9k.

    16 vs 12. Interesting

    WA has a shit load of 8k ones that barely miss the cut and are serious mountains, like Dragontail. Fun climb
