Spokane: US 395 at MP 168: Little - River (7)
Spokane lies along the Spokane River, a city set between the rolling Palouse country and the forested uplands of eastern Washington. US 395 crosses the Little Spokane River on the city’s northern side, where this smaller, spring-fed watercourse runs through wooded terrain before meeting the Spokane River. The Little Spokane is associated with Riverside State Park, a large public recreation area extending along both rivers. Spokane developed as a rail and trading center and became an important hub for the Inland Northwest. Its Riverfront Park occupies the former grounds of Expo ’74, the world’s fair widely recognized as the first to focus on environmental themes. The falls on the Spokane River remain central to the city’s identity.

The park’s Great Northern Clocktower, a remnant of a railway depot, is a familiar landmark. The city’s name reflects the Spokane Tribe, whose ancestral homeland includes this area.

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.
