You could go with any type really except russet if you want to use them boiled. As long as the potato isn't too starchy you're good to go. I usually get yellows flesh potatoes so my experience has been with Yukon Gold and Yellow Finn.

But why don't you get potatoes from a local market and plant those? I'm not sure if there are local varieties where you are but they are sure to be grown closer to you than something near Oregon.
