Washington Word Search, free printable PDF preview

One mountain range does all the work. West of the CASCADE crest it rains constantly and the forest is a rainforest; east of it, almost nothing falls and the land turns to scrub. RAINIER stands over the whole argument, and it is still a VOLCANO.

Call it a washington word find if that is the phrase you grew up with. The grid does not mind and the answer key still fits on one page.

Frequently asked questions

What is Puget Sound?

The long inland waterway that cuts down into the state, which is why the FERRY is a commuter service rather than a novelty.

Why is ORCHARD on the list?

The dry side of the mountains grows a very large share of the country's apples, thanks to that same rain shadow.
