Volcanic mountains in western USA and Canada,
extending 1,120 km/700 mi from N California
through Oregon and Washington to the Fraser
River. They include Mount St Helens and Mount
Rainier (the highest peak, 4,392 m/14,408
ft), which is noteworthy for its glaciers.
The mountains are the most active in the USA,
excluding Alaska and Hawaii.
