Compass Rose


Location: East Aberdeen Waterfront Walkway (Behind Walmart)

For a leisurely walk along the Chehalis River, take the River Walkway eastward from Morrison Park to the Compass Rose located at the west end of the Riverfront Walk, or park west of Walmart and walk a few steps to the Compass Rose. Stand at the center of the compass and speak or sing and you will experience “the sound chamber”. The concept was conceived by Jason Bausher as a Harbor History Project for Eagle Scouts. The people who donated funds for the construction are memorialized in the bricks surrounding the compasss.
