Photos of the e

The pictures you see here were taken on 4/20/09 obviously from the air. As you can see the land sticks out into the ocean rather far. There is a controversy between Cape Blanco and Cape Alava in Washington as to which one is the westernmost point of the continental United States. It depends on the high and low tides and where they measure, etc. So to be safe, let's say it is the western-most point of Oregon.

The country here is beautiful, lots of flora and fauna to watch and enjoy. The lighthouse was built in 1870 and looks really good for 139 years on such an exposed place.
