The center of the country is crossed by the Cascade Range, the north-south running mountain range, the highest point of which is the 4392 m high Mount Rainier. The northern part of the mountain is a granite massif, the southern part is volcanic plateau, into which the Columbia River has cut deep. In the southeast of the country is the Columbia Plateau, a huge basin whose surface has been shaped by lava flows. Much of the state is covered by coniferous forest.
