At the edge of the Pacific Northwest lies one of the deadliest stretches of water in North Americathe Columbia Bar, where the Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean. This isnt just a river mouthits a maritime gauntlet where unpredictable sandbars, deadly tides, and violent storms have claimed over 2,000 vessels. For generations, sailors have called it the Graveyard of the Pacific.

In this episode, we uncover the harrowing history of this infamous regionfrom Indigenous knowledge systems to shipwrecks like the SS Valencia and SS Pacific, whose wreckage remained hidden for over a century. Well explore how bar pilots risk their lives to navigate these waters, and how the U.S. Coast Guard continues to protect one of the most dangerous coastlines in America.
