Pacific Northwest Field Operations Group

Stretching for more than 2500 miles along the Pacific Coast, Cascadia extends as far as the salmon run, spread across an incredible diversity and range of habitats, wilderness and landscapes. These watersheds stretch from South East Alaska to Northern California, and from the crest of the continental divide to the Pacific coast westward. Cascadia is a bioregion defined by the watersheds of the Columbia and Fraser River valleys that stretches from Northern California to south east Alaska and as far east as the Yellowstone Caldera and continental divide. It encompasses most of the states and province of British Columbia, Washington, Oregon and Idaho, and parts of southeast Alaska, northern California and western Montana. 

The Salish Sea is a marginal sea of the Pacific Ocean located in the Canadian province of British Columbia and the U.S. state of Washington, encompassing the Strait of Georgia, the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Puget Sound, and an intricate network of connecting channels and adjoining waterways. It is an inland marine ecosystem that stretches from the north end of the Strait of Georgia and Desolation Sound to the south end of Puget Sound and west to the mouth of the Strait of Juan de Fuca, where it meets the Pacific Ocean.

If you are a Gebirgsjäger (mountaineer), an amateur (ham) radio operator participating in field operations (such as SOTA and POTA), a wilderness medic, a hiker on the Pacific Crest Trail, an advocate for the remote, isolated, and coastal regions of the Pacific Northwest, or a defender of the Cascadia Bioregion – welcome to the Pacific Northwest Field Operations Group.
