Northwest Montana (Flathead, Lincoln and Lake counties) is considered by DHS to be a high value terrorist target. We are home to the three eastern-most hydro-power dams (Hungry Horse, Libby and Kerr) on the entire Columbia River hydro-power system.
Take out any or all of these dams and the effect will be felt all the way the the mouth of the Columbia at Astoria, OR. The dams on the lower Columbia wouldn't stand a chance. All three of our dams have been operating on Threat Level Orange for years, no more guided tours, e.g.
Another area in the PNW that has always concerned me is the Umatilla Army Depot in eastern Oregon, where they store deteriorating and decaying chemical, biological and nerve agents. The place spooks me every time I drive thru it.
