Oregon (i/ˈɔːrᵻɡən/ AWR-ə-gən) is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. Oregon is bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean, on the north by Washington, on the south by California, on the east by Idaho, and on the southeast by Nevada. The Columbia River delineates much of Oregon's northern boundary, and the Snake River delineates much of the eastern boundary. The parallel 42° north delineates the southern boundary with California and Nevada. It is one of only three states of the contiguous United States to have a coastline on the Pacific Ocean, and the proximity to the ocean heavily influences the state's mild winter climate, despite the latitude.
Oregon was inhabited by many indigenous tribes before Western traders, explorers, and settlers arrived. An autonomous government was formed in the Oregon Country in 1843, the Oregon Territory was created in 1848, and Oregon became the 33rd state on February 14, 1859. Today, at 98,000 square miles, Oregon is the ninth largest and, with a population of 4 million, 26th most populous U.S. state. The capital of Oregon is Salem, the second most populous of its cities, with 160,614 residents (2013 estimate). With 609,456 residents (2013 estimate), Portland is the largest city in Oregon and ranks 29th in the U.S. Its metro population of 2,314,554 (2013 estimate) is 24th. The Willamette Valley in western Oregon is the state's most densely populated area, home to eight of the ten most populous cities.

PACIFIC CITY, OREGON — The moment a landmark rock formation was brought crashing to the ground by three brain-dead morons has been captured on video. The iconic and much-loved sandstone pedestal at Cape Kiwanda in Oregon was known as the “Duckbill”. It was shaped by thousands of years of erosion, but it took just seconds for a group of dicks to destroy it for kicks. Oregon State Park officials originally thought the rock had crumbled by itself. But eyewitness David Kalas saw as many as eight people trying to topple it, KATU reported. When Kalas confronted the group, they justified their actions by saying their buddy had earlier broken his leg because of the rock. They even had the stones to say they had done the world a favor. The senseless actions of the vandals got a rocky re...

Police in Oregon are trying to identify a group of vandals that destroyed an iconic natural landmark. A tourist captured video of people pushing over a rock formation at the Cape Kiwanda State Natural Area, southwest of Portland. Whoever did this could pay a big price. Ben Tracy reports.

In this travel video tour of Portland, Oregon, I travel to Portland, one of the most unique cities in the United States. I started my trip off by hopping off a plane and then immediately hopping onto a bus. But not just any bus, a bus operated by Brewvana Brewery Tours, the mostly women-run craft beer brewery tour company. Portland, or know as Beervana to some, is home to 55 breweries within its borders, and is truly a beer-lover's paradise. On my tour we made stops at Rogue Ales & Spirits, Laurelwood Pubic House & Brewery, Widmer Brothers Brewery and Sidecar Bar, where I had the chance to sit down over a pint with the founder and owner of Brewvana, Ashley Rose Salvitti. While in Portland, I stayed at the Tiny House Hotel, a hotel made up of, you guessed it, tiny houses. In the next po...
