(Redirected from Coastal Range)
A 'Coastal range' is any range of mountains forming a coastline.

★ North American examples are the coastal ranges of Canada, Mexico and the U.S. states of Oregon, Washington, and California, called the Pacific Coast Ranges.
They are often created by subduction of the nearby oceanic plate and typically contain active volcanoes. The inland side of a coastal range may be in a rain shadow.
