Galloping Gertie did not span a river; it spanned a strait (Tacoma Narrows) that is a part of Puget Sound. Puget Sound is connected to the Pacific Ocean and has multiple arms that extends deep into western Washington. Technically speaking, one might say that Galloping Gertie collapsed into an inlet of the Pacific Ocean.
