What are the landforms and environmental features of the state?
Oregon is a state divided by mountains. The Cascade Mountains stretch across the entire north/south length of Oregon, producing areas with two entirely different climates. West of the Cascades, a mild, moist marine climate prevails, while east of the Cascades, Oregon's high desert country can be scorching hot or really cold. In between the Cascades and the coast, the Coast Range defines the lush growing land of the Willamette Valley from the marine coast area.
