Esther Barrow, from the Willamette Valley, arrived in the Olympic Peninsula in the 1930 s after marrying Charles Webster. She is editor of the Port Angeles Evening News, and she is devoted to painting, which she studied in New York a few years earlier.

Today, this little ar gallery overlooks the waterfront, the city and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, from Beaver Hill. In this semi-circular house, the artists of the region exhibit their works. On the outside, Webster's Woods is a sculpture garden, which gives the opportunity to take a surprising walk. Look for the eyes carved in a tree, or the needle heels climbing to the trunk.

The park's name comes from the failure of navigator and fur trader John Meares to turn back north of this cape on a stormy night and miss the discovery of the mouth of the Columbia River in 1788. Located at the southern tip of the Long Beach Peninsula, at the mouth of the river, this extreme point was reached a few years later, again by the sea, by American Captain Robert Gray in 1792, and finally by the Lewis and Clark ground expedition (exactly near Chinook) in the winter of 1805-1806. In the park, you can visit the Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center.
