I thought you were smarter than that.
Presuming you're not:
Mountains and valleys (great for filling up with dammed water) are
the predominant geological feature of the areas of the Columbia and

Mountains and valleys are *not* the predominant geological feature
of the Great Plains states, or those uber-mountainous states like
Louisiana and Mississippi.
