Cape Blanco Lighthouse

A picturesque white lighthouse guides ships with a light beaming from a focal point of 256 feet. Built in 1870, it stands on a cape which is the second (after Cape Alava in Washington State) western-most point of mainland USA. The trails in Cape Blanco State Park are open for daytime use, although the lighthouse may still be closed for tours. Check the website for updates. The current hours for the park 10 AM to 3:15 PM Wednesday through Monday, closed on Tuesday.
