Cape Flattery - Tatoosh Island


Cape Flattery is the most northwesterly tip of the USA (48 States) and looks across the mouth of the Straits of Juan DeFuca and Canada. The Pacifric Ocean is the backdrop and Tatoosh Island is located off the tip of the cape. There use to be a Makah fishing village on Tatoosh Island years ago, but no longer! In the winter, storms rage through this area, with winds of 100+ MPH on occasion! Look how calm and beautiful the day was for us. We had a great time exploring and seeing the spectacular scenery and the rugged coastline.
