The Columbia drainage seems like a good start.  Now we need to
include coastal streams and the portions of Oregon that are in the
Great Basin.  How about everything in the drainages of all streams
that flow into the Pacific Ocean between the mouth of the Klamath
River and Vancouver B.C., and then add in anything in Oregon or
Idaho that is still left out?  That would give us all of Oregon,
Washington, and Idaho, plus the northernmost part of California,
a good chunk of B.C., and I think part of Alberta.  I think it also
includes the part of Montana west of the Continental Divide, that
was part of the Oregon Territory.  I guess I'll have to take a good
look at an atlas this weekend.
