That's The Palouse in eastern Washington and western Idaho...it is an incredibly beautiful land. It was hard to mechanize farming there because of the hilly terrain...early harvesters only worked on flat lands. Smaller combines were invented specifically to harvest wheat in The Palouse. Major crops today are wheat, lentils, peas and rapeseed (canola oil).
