Foulweather Bluff

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Foulweather Bluff is a cliff which lies on the north end of the Manette Peninsula along Puget Sound, on the east side of the entrance to the Hood Canal. It is one of the most prominent cliffs in Puget Sound.

The north face, which is bare, is 0.5 mile wide and consists of vertical, grayish sand and clay bluffs. The highest cliff is 225 feet high, sloping off to the east to a bluff 40 feet high. On the Hood Canal side, the point is steep and high. A marsh, enclosed by a sand spit and marked by a light, extends about 500 yards from the base of the bluff on the Hood Canal side. The top of the bluff is covered by fir trees and underbrush.
