The "Fruit Capital of Western North America"
stretches from Canada's border to Oregon's border. The
Okanogan Valley in the north (which starts
as the Okanagan Valley in Canada) flows to the Wenatchee
Valley south of it. Orchard fruits include
pears, peaches, nectarines, apples, cherries, and grapes; but there
also exists wildlife, fish and forestry to make this area a very "fruitful"
travel experience.
The Okanogan River, Entiat
River, and Wenatchee River all flow into the Columbia River providing
good transportation for fruits from this area. These rivers are
the lifeblood to little cities like Pateros and
Chelan Falls that developed on the rivers' banks.
