More like 343 by rail (according to Amtrak's Cascades timetable), and 315 by highway (276 miles within Washington State on I-5, about 8 miles between downtown Portland and the Columbia River, and about 31 miles from the Peace Arch into downtown Vancouver).
260, straight-line distance, but the only way you will realisticly accomplish that is by helicopter. PDX-YVR (air) is 250 miles (straight line) but then add your distance to each city center.
