Three Tree Point

Three Tree Point is a low, gravelly, triangle-shaped spit jutting into the east side of Puget Sound.

It is referred to on some navigation charts as "Point Pully", in recognition of crew member Robert Pulley of the Wilkes Expedition.

[1] In early years of development on Three Tree Point, a dock was built on the north beach.

During the early years of World War II, lookouts would take turns in the light tower, searching the skies for possible enemy planes.
