Pillar Rock
Pillar Rock is a unique geologic feature located near the mouth of the Columbia River in Wahkiakum County, Washington.
Pillar Rock's claim to fame is its mention in the Journal of Lewis and Clark. The famous explorers were tasked with finding a route through the western part of the country to the Pacific Ocean. As they were on the cusp of reaching their destination, they mistook the Colorado Estuary for the Pacific Ocean but in reality were still over 20 miles away. Read more on ArcGIS Story Maps.
