Trail
Ilwaco Washington
The black lines represent the roads in and around Cape Disappointment State Park on the map, above. The red line is the North Head Trail. If you want to hike to the North Head Lighthouse, this trail will lead you there. You can also drive closer to it on the loop road - WA HWY 100. The trail runs close to where Clark made his way north to the present Long Beach. In 1805 it was a beach trail, now it's far inland (see page 347). I chose to hike and photograph the current beach, thinking it was more typical of what Clark's group experienced. Middle right, Mckenzie Head from Benson Beach.
