The Pacific Ocean dominates this coastal survey, where the rugged shoreline of Washington meets the open water. A narrow strip of land along the eastern edge reveals the protected wilderness of Olympic National Park, showing the interface between the marine environment and the dense temperate forests of the Olympic Peninsula. The maritime character of the region is punctuated by Kalaloch Rocks, a series of coastal formations visible just off the shore. This 2014 U.S. Geological Survey map captures the precise boundary where Jefferson County and Grays Harbor County meet the Pacific, providing a detailed look at the coastline as it existed in the early 21st century. Running parallel to the coast, Highway 101 serves as the primary artery for travelers and locals alike navigating this remote stretch of the Pacific Northwest.
