Olympic Peninsula: Cape Flattery Light

The lighthouse was built in 1854 and sits on Tatoosh Island, named after Chief Tatooche of the Makah Tribe. The light was decommissioned in 2008 when a solar powered beacon on a 30 foot skeletal structure came into use, though the 65 foot original tower remains. The island is owned by the Makah Tribe.
