Cape Flattery marks the northwesternmost point of the contiguous United States, where the rocky coastline meets the Strait of Juan de Fuca. This coastal survey documents the intricate geography of the Makah Indian Reservation, highlighting the cultural and navigational importance of landmarks like the Cape Flattery Lighthouse on Tatoosh Island. The terrain is characterized by dramatic sea stacks and formations such as Fuca Pillar, Mushroom Rock, and the distinctive Hole-in-the Wall. Small coastal settlements including Midway and Classet are linked by the Cape Loop Rd, while the eastern edge of the map reaches toward the waters of Neah Bay. Notable water features like Titacoclos Falls and the secluded Warmhouse Beach illustrate the interaction between the land and the Pacific, providing a detailed record of this maritime boundary at the start of the 2010s.
