Although closed to the public, it can be viewed from Cape Flattery via a short 30-minute walk.[6] HistoryThe lighthouse was built in 1854 based on the design by Ammi B. Young. Its first light was displayed from a first-order lens in 1857 and was Washington Territory's third lighthouse. The house with a {{convert|65|ft|adj=on}} tower from the center still stands; the tower's light stands {{convert|165|feet}} above water.[7][8] A fog signal building with a {{convert|12|inch|adj=on}} steam whistle was built on the island in 1872. The original first-order lens was replaced by a fourth-order lens in 1932, then with a modern optic lens in 1977. The lighthouse's light was decommissioned after a {{convert|30|ft|adj=on}} skeletal structure with a solar-powered beacon fitted with six-year solar pack batteries was built on the island in 2008.[9] In 2009, the Coast Guard began cleanup operations in anticipation of turning the historic lighthouse over to the Makah tribe, who own Tatoosh Island.[10] After the transfer, the Coast Guard will continue to have access for purposes of maintaining the optic.[11] References1. ^{{cite gnis|1531328|Cape Flattery Lighthouse}} [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]2. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.lighthousefriends.com/light.asp?ID=120 |title=Cape Flattery, WA |publisher=Lighthousefriends |accessdate=April 24, 2015}} 3. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.uscg.mil/history/weblighthouses/LHWA.asp |title=Historic Light Station Information & Photography: Washington |publisher=U.S. Coast Guard |date=November 17, 2014 |accessdate=April 24, 2015}} 4. ^1 {{cite web |url=https://www.uscg.mil/d13/img/lighthouses/docs/LIGHTS_PRO.doc |title=13th Coast Guard District Lighthouses |publisher=13th Coast Guard District |date=January 1996 |accessdate=April 24, 2015}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.cr.nps.gov/maritime/light/capeflat.htm |title=Cape Flattery Light |work=Inventory of Historic Light Stations: Washington Lighthouses |publisher=National Park Service |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20040407151518/http://www.cr.nps.gov/maritime/light/brownspt.htm |archivedate=April 7, 2004 |accessdate=April 24, 2015}} 6. ^1 {{cite journal|url=http://digitalcollections.lib.washington.edu/cdm/ref/collection/lctext/id/1483 |title=History of Tatoosh Island |last=Elyea |first=Winifred |journal=Washington Historical Quarterly |year=1929 |volume=20 |number=3 |pages=223-227|publisher=Washington University State Historical Society |accessdate=April 24, 2015}} 7. ^1 {{cite news|url=http://www.heraldnet.com/article/20090921/NEWS03/709219833 |title=Coast Guard prepares island for transfer to Makah |last=Schroeder |first=Deeda |date=September 21, 2009 |newspaper=The Herald |publisher=The Daily Herald Co. |location=Everett, Wash. |accessdate=April 24, 2015 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304112119/http://www.heraldnet.com/article/20090921/NEWS03/709219833 |archivedate=March 4, 2016 |df= }} 8. ^1 {{cite news|url=http://www.peninsuladailynews.com/article/20091018/NEWS/310189994 |title=Historic Cape Flattery lighthouse to be turned over to Makah; no timeline set |last=Miller |first=Marcie |date=October 17, 2009 |newspaper=Peninsula Daily News |publisher=Black Press Ltd./Sound Publishing Inc. |accessdate=April 24, 2015}} 9. ^1 {{cite news |url=http://lighthouse-news.com/2009/10/20/cape-flattery-lighthouse-transferred/ |title=Cape Flattery lighthouse transferred |last=Clark |first=Sue |date=October 20, 2009 |newspaper=Lighthouse News |accessdate=April 24, 2015 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150407033642/http://lighthouse-news.com/2009/10/20/cape-flattery-lighthouse-transferred/ |archivedate=April 7, 2015 |df= }} 10. ^1 {{cite web |url=https://www.unc.edu/~rowlett/lighthouse/wa.htm |title=Lighthouses of the United States: Washington |author=Rowlett, Russ |date=October 19, 2014 |publisher=University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill |accessdate=June 5, 2015}} }} External links
