East Wenatchee, Washington -
Lincoln Rock

Natural rock outcropping's strong resemblance to Lincoln wasn't enough to sway the state from calling itself Washington.

Address:: Lincoln Park Rd, East Wenatchee, WA
Directions:: A handy photo-op that shows how to look at Lincoln Rock so that it looks like Lincoln is in Lincoln Rock State Park, which is about seven miles north of East Wenatchee on US 2 -- even though the Rock itself is on US 97, on the other side of Lake Entiat.

Lincoln Rock

According to my very old copy of "Washington's Historical Markers" by W. M. Scofield, this natural feature, located on "U. S. 1, North of East Wenatchee" closely resembles the profile of the 16th president. Yet I am shocked to find no mention of it on your website, while you call attention to some dead guy, who no one ever heard of, carried from Missouri in a lead coffin filled with rum! Where are your priorities? P.S. I'm living in Amsterdam, or else I would immediately check this one out for myself. [Ron Bruckbauer, 06/25/2005]
