The mainstem of the Columbia rises in Columbia Lake on the west slope of the Rocky Mountain Range in Canada. After flowing a circuitous path for about 1,200 miles (415 miles of which are in Canada) the Columbia joins the Pacific Ocean near Astoria, Oregon. The river drains an area of approximately 219,000 square miles in the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Nevada, and Utah, with an additional 39,500 square mile portion of the basin, or about 15 percent, within Canada. This basin is North America's fourth largest river basin. There are over 250 reservoirs and around 150 hydroelectric projects in the basin, including 18 mainstem dams on the Columbia and its main tributary, the Snake River

I'm almost positive it is the Columbia River. A great website for S.S stuff is U-S-history.com
