The last few times we have visited Cape Disappointment State Park, the end of North Jetty has been closed because the river is being dredged in order to deepen the shipping passage.
This time we were able to see the dredge doing its work. 
A closer view of the dredge ship.
We couldn’t walk all the way to the south end of the beach because of the work going on at the jetty.
This area, where the Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean is such an interesting area. We never get tired of exploring here.
Cormorants
When we are this close to Cape Disappointment Lighthouse, we can see that it needs a paint job!
Cape Disappointment’s other lighthouse is North Head, which is visible from Benson Beach at the campground.
Looks like a great place to visit. Thanks for taking us there. :)
ReplyDeleteAlways enjoy seeing the different Lighthouses. We will have to check out this area next time we travel north. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteNice pics, I'll add this to our places to visit when we're on the Coast next year!

Those Cormorants are so cute. We enjoy lighthouses. There is just something so interesting about them. Thanks for those pics of the 2 at the state park. Hope your trip back to your home was non-windy!
