The Oak/Conifer Eastern Cascades Columbia Foothills ecoregion is more diverse than any other within the Eastern Cascade Slopes and Foothills (9). Soil, climate, and landforms are all highly variable and contribute to a mosaic of vegetation types that includes grasslands, oak woodlands, Douglas-fir/ponderosa pine forests, and western hemlock/Douglas-fir forests. Maritime weather systems sometime enter Ecoregion 9c via the Columbia River Gorge and moderate its otherwise continental climate.
