Algona: SR 167 at MP 13.1: S 353rd St
Algona has served as an agricultural community in Washington’s Green River Valley since the early 20th century. Incorporated as a city in 1955, it remains a small, largely residential municipality between Auburn and Pacific in south King County. State Route 167 runs along Algona’s western side, placing the city on a major north–south corridor through the valley. Modest homes, commercial premises and surviving open strips sit beneath low, wooded hills, reflecting the lowland setting that shaped the area’s early farms. The nearby Green River has long influenced settlement and agriculture in this part of Puget Sound.

Washington’s terrain runs from Pacific coastal lowlands in the west to the dry Columbia Plateau in the east, with the Cascade Range creating a marked climatic divide. Central Washington lies on the plateau side of the Cascades, where the Columbia River has cut broad valleys and irrigation supports orchards and vineyards. The state also includes Puget Sound, the intricate marine inlet around Seattle, and the volcanic cone of Mount Rainier. Seattle’s Space Needle, built for the 1962 World’s Fair, remains one of its most recognisable landmarks. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare landscapes and settings around Washington.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
