2023 Map of Cape Disappointment

About this map

Cape Disappointment anchors this coastal survey, where the Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean at the treacherous boundary between Washington and Oregon. This landscape is defined by its maritime and military history, featuring the grounds of Fort Canby and the prominent North Head lookout. The settlement pattern follows the narrow Long Beach Peninsula, with the towns of Seaview, Long Beach, and Breakers clustered along the western shore. On the sheltered eastern side, the Port of Ilwaco Airport and the town of Ilwaco sit adjacent to Baker Bay, highlighting the area's transition from open ocean to protected estuary. Genealogists will find the locations of the Lone Fir Cem and Ilwaco Cem preserved here, while natural features like McKenzie Head and Black Lake reflect the complex coastal topography within the Lewis and Clark National Historical Park.
