Hey ameribros, I'm planning a summer trip to USA and can decide what state to go to.
My #1 priority is wildlife and camping, so I am thinking Oregon. Is it worth going there for the forests/mountains?

*can't decide
Fuck my grammar

Go to Washington north of the colombia its nicer

Pennsylvania. Fuck Oregon.

Pennsylvania is so dope it was named after a single family/man that was gifted the land from the king, William Penn. He founded the land under Quaker leadership and tried to live in peace/convert natives, until the stupid fucking Irish Paxton boys killed a tribe and squated on land. The liberty bell and the history of Philadaphia is also really shows how how PA was incredibly important we were in colonial times and during the revolution.

PA also has huge state parks, lots of rivers and trails to hike. I live next to the Delaware river in Easton, a huge railway/canal/colonial town that was the first here. Pennsylvania played a big role in the Industrialization of the nation, with tons of resources like coal and steel production. My town was only one of the 3 to have the Declaration of Independence read aloud. We even have a signer here.

There's a lot here to see in Pennsylvania if you are traveling to America so I'd recommend it.

fuck off ivan we're full

Pennsylvania is ugly as shit don't waste your time. Oregon is beautiful if you stay away from the hippy areas. Somewhere like Wyoming or South Dakota would be my recommendation. Are you wanting forests or deserts?

too late, ameribro

t. another ivan soon to be citizen

you have to go back

go away ivan2

Can't you just walk to Alaska?

OR is king,
Don't waste your time anywhere else. By far cleanest state, too.
No sales tax, Ivan

Make me.

Stay away from major cities like Portland, Eugene, Salem, etc and you'll be fine.

Seconded

Visit the coast range, sisters, and wallowa-whitman. Portland is a degenerate shithole.

Yellowstone National Park. Shit covers 3 states and there's wolves there, plus the area sits under a super volcano so there's gonna be geysers senpai

Come to Oregon, spend your money, and go home. Avoid Portland and Eugene. Everywhere else is pretty bro. I live in the central Willamette valley and it's nice here. Mt. Hood and Mt. Jefferson are great, lots of forest. Deer and Elk seasons are over, but check the ODFW website to see if there is anything in season you want to hunt and can afford the tags for. Out of state licenses can be spendy.

Washington.

Please go to Blanca lake in the Cascade mountains. Seatac airport is better than any international airport on the western seaboard. Go from Seatac along I-5 North into Seattle, buy some gear if you don't have it, then drive East on I-90 until you get into the mountains. Then go and hike up into the lakes. Please, do this for me.

the forests and mountains are nice, but you should make sure to experience all the different biomes you can in the US, as there is quite a diversity.

Are you an Oregon user? I was looking at a beach front year round rental property about 45 minutes outside of Oregon and it was only 1,100 a month. Is Oregon a good place to move to?

also, prices vary a lot and you should find somewhere where prices are low

Hello Ivan, Oregonfag reporting in. Oregon is beautiful as we have many majestic waterfalls, freshwater springs, coniferous forests and gorges to hike around. Even our biggest urban city, Portland, has lots of trees and nature parks. We have a few treasured national parks, one of which is Crater Lake which happens to be the deepest lake in North America and the rim has one of the most stunning views I have seen in the state. Summer is when a lot of the tourists come to the national parks so I would advise exploring in early June. Expect the weather to range from 22 - 39 degrees Celsius. Here's a good website for the best summer hiking places: outdoorproject.com/blog-news/oregons-75-best-day-hikes

Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana are all great. Hit up Glacier National Park

There is basically no beachfront property, it's public land

I live in Portland Or, can confirm for shithole, it's so gay here don't waste your time homie

>live in Portland
>speak for the state

Ignore this, OP. There are two types of Oregonians: those from Portland, and everyone else. I would say to visit the coast because it's beautiful but it's pretty chilly this time of year with a lot of wind gust.

Pic related is Opal Creek Wilderness one of the best swimming spots with sapphire blue water.

Wrong reply

This.

>My #1 priority is wildlife and camping, so I am thinking Oregon. Is it worth going there for the forests/mountains?
Yes. Not right now, late May and early September are the best times to go.

It also depends what kind of climate you're looking for. pic related

The Oregon section of the Pacific Crest Trail is a beautiful hike if you're up for it.

Oneonta Gorge is about 20 miles east of Portland. You want to got there in the early morning when there aren't Chinese tourists and the water is high.

Pic related.

If you want to go talk to someone who specializes in tourism

There are a lot of different places to visit here I wouldn't even know where to start

Come to San Diego and hike to Oregon on the Pacific crest trail. Might take some time but you will be a hero if you make it.

Yellowstone/the Grand Tetons are probably the best place for wildlife, mountains and camping if you're willing to put up with annoying crowds

Oднoзнaчнo дa. Bpoдe пepвый в cтpaнe пo кoличecтвy нaциoнaльных пapкoв, дaжe ecть знaкoмыe, кoтopыe в oднoм из них paбoтaют. Пpиpoдa зaeбaтeльcкaя. Пopтлeнд - oхyитeльный гopoд. Лoмиcь, нe пoжaлeeшь.

Oregonian here. People are right about avoiding population centers. Total shit. Also, see the checkerboard pattern on this map? Everything in Western Oregon is rotated logging timberland. Only wildlife left here are deer. Plenty of camping and hiking, but not that pretty.

If you go to Oregon go nowhere West or South of Bend. South is wasteland, West is faux nature. Northeast Oregon is pretty fucking sweet. Can't really recommend Oregon for a foreign trip though. Go see things like Yellowstone, Arches, Needles, Zion, etc.

Anything in Oregon is really only worth it for a day trip for Oregonians.

Crater Lake!

Oregon Pluses-
>no sales tax
>nice coast
>Portland is an aesthetically pleasing city
>farmland is close to important areas, so you can go wine tasting
>Crater Lake

Oregon Cons-
>no Mount Rainier
>no Mount St. Helens
>no Olympic national park
>no ferry boat rides to different islands in the Puget Sound

I'd try to visit both Washington and Oregon, but many of the geographic features of Oregon are just smaller versions of what's in Washington.

Crater Lake on a summer night. It's about a five hour drive from Portland but totally worth it

Don't end up like this:

3 Sisters and Broken Top

Timberline Lodge at Mt. Hood

Here's the south face of Mt. Hood

Multnomah Falls

The Painted Hills

San Diego is great. Awesome fucking beaches around La Jolla. It's fun to visit but it's expensive to stay.

And Mt. Jefferson from the north, with Jefferson Park in the foreground

Arch Rock

Haystack Rock

It's a fairly big state, about the size of the UK. You will need transportation. So, it depends on how you will get to different places.

Oregon is nice as fuck dude and there are lots of Russians living here, lots of us around portland lol. Portland is worth checking out for sure and there's lots of hiking and forests to check out around it, coast is also beautiful and has lots of hikes and and landmarks to check out.

Portland is a liberal shithole. Nice city, awful people

Oregon here. it's nice.
But I have to ask why do so many Europeans like my state so much? I see lots of brits and other euros in Portland.

Truth. You might get to most cities via either bus or train, but most natural sights aren't easily accessible with anything but a car.

The tide pools of Silver Point, Oregon. "Neptune's Secret Garden."

Texasbro here

Oregon is great
Multnomah is a fun hike up to the top
Tons of food and places to walk to in portland
Cannon beach is also a good day trip, then venture north a ways to whatever that town like 10 minutes north is - its rockier and relaxing to waste a few hours looking for sand dollars

Iunno, that's just how I spent three days there on a summer romance, have fun ivan

Yea the third most spoken language is Russian. Why do they come here?

Oregon is a rainy risk. Western montana and northern Idaho is where you want to go, unless your a bitchass little faggot nigger.

Montana around Yellowstone or around Glacier Park. Anywhere else and you're just an AIDS faggot liberal with a beard and a pocket full of herpes.

Pick a place. It's all good except for New Jersey.

what's tree line in Oregon?

Mt. Jefferson
That's all you need to know.

Unless you're planning to go to Glacier or join a white pride parade then there's not a lot to do there.

Mid June to basically mid September are usually quite dry.

> be from russia
> land of siberian forests/mountains
> decide to go to oregon for muh outdoors

Oregon has preddy gud outdoors. But it depends what you're looking for.

> big epic mountains
Go to Alaska during the summer

> nice weather and mountains
California

Also, how much money do you want to spend? The USA is run by Jews so everything's fucking expensive. If you're cheap then just hike into some public land (national park or BLM land) and camp deep innawoods. Still expensive to get around but it's free to camp in the middle of the woods.

If you're an oligarch, then (1) fuck you for being a rich Jew and (2) go to a resort in Tahoe where you can buy russian caviar and french wine

Not sure, but I know a ton emigrated to Portland in the early 90s because I went to school with several recently arrived Russian kids. They didn't name their schools in Russia, which seemed strange and foreign to meat the time. Also, quite a few Kazakhs showed up around the same time.

He should just go to the entire west coast and avoid staying in the hipster hellholes like Portland, Seattle and San Francisco.

The UP of Michigan.

Although it'd be risky for a foreigner without an itinerary. There's a whole lot of nothing up there. But it is perfect if you enjoy the outdoors.

You would just have to make a detailed plan.

Interesting. Maybe because it's similar in landscape and the borderline socialism.

Upper Peninsula always looked comfy.

Probably.

Voodoo donuts in the captcha, it's a sign!

Naw man I'm From Oregon it's shit here go to the Olympic peninsula it's a FUCK of a lot more awesome
Crater lakes cool once but when ya been there already...

I wonder what kind of fish they eat there.

Is lake fish served in restaurants or you can only cook it yourself? How safe is to eat river/lake fish in the USA generally?

Yeah, come to Oregon, it's a mysterious place full of all sorts of weird kikery, Illuminati influence, lodge networks, cool nature and weed.

Washington State tourism shill detected.

Actually, Washington is pretty great, too. Hard to go wrong on the west coast desu.

He wants to see forests and mountains, not Amish farmland and retards

He's not a WA shill, he's an Oregonian sick of people coming to our fucking state

I regularly catch trout in the rivers and lakes of the Colorado Rockies. They say limit 5 or so a month. I eat more than that some times. The lake I ice fish, and have the most success, isnt near any old mines, so I don't get too worried. The trout is tasty too

Let me tell you. Go to any mom and pa restaurant. They will have locally caught fish to eat. I mean, you can get a real cheap license and fish yourself too.

I'm not sure about the whole US but in Michigan, and especially the UP the water is as clean as it gets (inb4 Flint). Beautiful lakes, rives, and streams. I live in the lower peninsula now, but it's such a great place to visit.

meant for

I don't live in Oregon, but where I live the wild fish are generally safe. I have eaten a lot of fish from ponds and rivers and have not suffered because of it.

Right now I'm just in a been there done that funk when it comes to Oregon so the last few years I have been exploring the peninsula and pugit sound his summer I'm hittin a ferry to Alaska the ferrys are cool as fuck

No ocean/coastline in Idaho or Montana. The coast is one of the best parts of Oregon.

Oh, and here is the list of the fish you can catch inland. The Great Lakes are a different beast.

I personally enjoy Perch and Walleye.

Thirded. Washington is a great state.

Utah.

Yosemite or Zions national park imo. Pacific NW is cool, but I would go all in and just go to northern WA

Do people go fishing in the winter?

How different Great Lakes are from Inland in terms of fishing? Is it more difficult to catch fish there? Is there any unusual fish there?

Fuck Oregon, go to Alaska. It's the same shit the PNW has but on steroids.

Great food, though.

Yeah, the inland lakes have a good amount of Ice Fishing, obviously less the further you go from towns.

The thing with the Great Lakes is that if you want to fish safely you will need navigation equipment, radios, etc. You shouldn't just go out on a shitty aluminum boat with a 2 HP motor.

Lake Superior is my favorite. It's the deepest and COLD AS FUCK all year round. Really cool cliffs and rock shelves though.

Do people eat fish soup in USA? Is it legal to cook it right after catching near the lake or river?

Never had fish soup, we eat clam chowder. If you come to Oregon in the spring the salmon will be running in the rivers, You have a fair to poor chance to catch on from the bank, unless you go down to the coast..

Nobody eats fish soup. We catch salmon off of the estuaries and eat it with a side. You need a license to fish but I don't think it's illegal to cook it near the water.

I mean as long as you are legally catching the fish I don't think it matters. The regulations to setting up fires/camp in a Michigan forest pretty much say "Don't be a dick".

That's understandable. Thanks for the info!

>captcha doesn't acknowledge blue star donut master race

The pond near me has carp, perch, bluegill, rainbow trout, catfish (which is tasty btw) and largemouth bass. It's different based on certain regions but that's the fish I have in my area which is heavily populated.
