This depends on what you mean by largest river (longest, or greatest discharge), and on what you mean by Pacific Ocean (include the Bering Sea or not).
The longest river emptying into the Pacific (though via the Bering Sea) is the Yukon River, with a length of 3187 km (1980 miles) and a discharge rate of 6428 m3/s (227,000 ft3/s).
The river with the greatest discharge is the Columbia River, which forms much of the border between the states of Oregon and Washington. Its length is 2000 km (1243 miles), and its discharge rate is 7500 m3/s (265,000 ft3/s).
Another notable river, the Colorado, empties into the Pacific via the Gulf of California. Its length is 2330 m (1450 miles), but its discharge rate, which has been much reduced by human activity, is 650 m3/s (22,000 ft3/s).
