Cape Flattery

Sekiu, Washington

Cape Flattery, the northwesternmost point of the continental United States, disappears into the morning fog like the end of an old tale. Sea stacks rise from the deep, crowned with wind-sculpted trees that cling stubbornly to their stony thrones. The Pacific whispers below, dark and endless. This is a place that feels both ancient and suspended—where land unravels into mist, and the wild says, “no further.” Part of My Four Corners, this image marks the top-left breath of the country—a remote, weathered sentinel where silence reigns and myth still lingers in the salt air.
