About this map

Cape Disappointment dominates this coastal landscape where the Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean. The map reveals a high concentration of maritime and military infrastructure, including the strategically positioned Fort Canby and the North Head Lighthouse. Inland from the dramatic headlands, the terrain transitions into a network of marshes and lakes like Black Lake and Cranberry Marsh, supporting small coastal settlements and family-named landmarks such as Pugh Ranch and Johnson Ranch.
